My cheap lab power supply is rated at max 300 watts (30V, 10A), so I was surprised to measure 32V from it. However, it was with no load on it. Maybe the voltage will drop once the power supply has to deliver current to a device.
In my upcoming video, I will attempt to test its max output. Can you guess how many (or few) watts it will deliver? Vote below.
