Review conclusionNot recommendedWith reservations

Only in one review: In test 320 W (AC-DC2416); Under load 11.8 V (S-180-12); Ripple 650 mV (S-180-12); Temperature rise 110 °C (AC-DC2416); Price 9 $ (AC-DC2416).

AC-DC2416: This sample had severe ripple, unstable output voltage and excess heat; it also readily reached about 320 W.

S-180-12: Well built, but overheats at maximum current and has high ripple; safer to use at up to 12 A.

Figures were taken from the review text and checked against the quoted passages. Measurement conditions differ between reviews, so read the reviews yourself before buying. Prices at the time of review.
