PSU : prices and differences

[Jonathan]

one of the guys on here will make you a PSU for cost price + a couple of beers.

Wouldn't be the first time ;)

Get the bits sent to me and I'll solder it up for you - it wont take more than 15 minutes. In fact I think I have a spare new 500VA toroidal transformer... 4 motors at 3.5 amps, so you need about 70% of 4*3.5 which is 9.8 amps. 9.8*50V=490VA ... so the transformer I think I have is perfect.

Jonathon, wouldn't it be easier for you to buy the parts, make the PSU and send him a paypal invoice? There seems to be a serious lack of decent quality PSU's on eBay...

Thank you very much Jonathan for the offer!
But I like to learn new things, so I'll try DIY route., just in case if Dean lose his patience with me, then I'll be back to you with big case of beer and I ask you to do it for me.

Thank you!
