Source for Power supplies

Where can a guy get a decent power supply without getting an victor or Rivergate.These are good but I know there are other that are inexpensive out there. Any help?

[chizzler]

you can probably just use a battery for like $40-50, im pretty sure there are guys here on the board that prefer that route because then they dont have to plug into an outlet to use their stuff ;)

I bought this one from a guy that sells stuff for Battlebot builders. 63 amps at 12 volts. $150.

No fancy colors or labels, but its works fine.

Take a look at Amateur Radio (HAM Radio) stores. They all use really good 12V power supplies and most places have a large number of them for sale that are used. In fact I have a couple I need to get rid of, let me know what your charger and everything else draws and I will see if I have something that will fit the bill.

Fafnir--My plan is to pull 2 chargers at 7.5 amps each.

here is one I know you should be able to find used for half that.

This one new is a little cheaper and should do the trick

And here is a place to buy them. See if they have anything used first and then talk to them about new ones.

--Good luck, I will see what I have at home that I don't want anymore. I thought I had a few 10amp ones that I would sell for like $10 or something I may have an extra 35amp one I would sell for like $50. I'll let you know...

by the way these are all power supplies in nice cases with an on off switch on the front, some have meters some don't...
