Can your tester handle the +12V loads required to test fully loaded at 60A, 70A & 80A or more?
Where is the cutoff point.
I have an idea that I think you & everyone else will like,
but first let's see if it is even possible.
Thanks,

The SM-268 goes up to 73.3A, but the last time I did that I blew out two MOSFET's on the 12V loading banks. I never let it go above 70A these days. Theoretically I have three more electronic loads coming that will supplement it and allow testing of units well over 1200W in size. If they ever get here.
My limit is 150~160A.
It's been a hard day's night and I've been working like a dog.
Yes. One of the last commincations I had with Dave Hammock before he disappeared from the web was how a major brand single +12V rail PSU wasn't shutting down when shorted. We were literally arc welding with the PSU. Hopefully Dave's absense isn't due to the fact that he got over zealous with the welding.

this should have been a headlines
excellent stuff, by the way, i hope you have a video recorder, we wanna watch those stupid power supplies smokin`
