Shouldn't it be High Current Pro as that title. Not High Current power?

Either way; good work Jonny

But why did you say voltage regulation was "decent" going off the info in your hot-box tests. It was ~1% on 3.3, 5, & 12 volt rails.

EDIT: Forgot to say, but glad someone agree's with me on the High Current name

You are the first to review this beast and you did a great job. Thanks!!

Is that a 0.01V drop on the +12V over 1200W? Can it be so? I think this thing just set a record for voltage regulation.

Efficiency is rather lower than the "92% up to 800W" that Nick told me, though... Still not bad. Not bad at all.

Very nice, when can we see the High Current Pro series to be available? Im looking to get the HCP 1000W unit.

Doh! I wonder how many times I did that. I've been calling it High Current Power since the beginning. Not sure why I can't get myself to use the word "Pro" with it.

+3.3V dropped .12V. +5V dropped .11V. That's not 1%. .12/3.3=3.636363%. .11/5=2.2%.

The +12V regulation is still awesome, I've never seen a rail move so little over such a huge load.

little typo in the 3.3V@10mV.jpg link

test10-3.3V.jpg@10mV

I know the name of the image is "test10...", but it is in fact test 8.

oops what i meant is the address in the link to the full sized 3.3V@10mV ripple .jpg is mistyped and returns a 404 error
