oh gaud this hoary monster again. Its crap, its rated for "testing purposes" in the fine print, ie 1 min at full current if your lucky. I roasted 2 before I realised. Its a great smoke generator. Jaycar power supplies are the very bottom of the hobby market, obviously, you pay for what you get. If you must go jaycar, derate the spec by 60% at least.
