- This is an unboxing and first impressions of the TACKLIFE DC Power Supply. When I was first looking for lab bench power supplies I had a really hard time trying to figure out which one I wanted to buy because there really aren't that many product specific reviews on these kinds of products. After some research and a little bit of guess work I decided to buy this one so I thought I'd make a video about it since there aren't any videos out there yet.
If anyone has any questions, I'd be more than happy to answer them in the comment section below.
I bought this because of amazon recommended it, good to see it's a good product.
I built my own from an atx unit.. it works just fine with two constant 5 v usb ports (when the unit is on or off) But I am running out of space so I decided to build a smaller one and found that I could buy this exact power supply for about the same as the parts to make mine.. so I got this.. it also works real fine and I am very pleased with it for all of you that want another opinion.. I see your new shop.. you are gonna need a bigger area.. I started with a bench that small but ran out of space real soon.. good luck will check back on you later.. carry on, stay safe and have fun!
Thanks for this video. I just bought the exact same thing from Amazon and I am trying to learn how to use it.
Thank you for the video ! users guide including with not clear at all
I just bought one and recieved it Sept 5 as well. I wanted to program my mobile ham radio indoors. Thank You for posting.
Nice! Good luck on your ham radio. I’ll admit that might be too advanced for me right now. Sounds really fun though, one of my professors at school does this for a hobby.
@@engineerjoules7163 Thank You very much. Not sure what discipline you are in, but edX has online courses MITx intro to Aerospace Engineering and Engineering the Space Shuttle. I'm not an engineer, but I learned a lot.
John Mills how high does the voltage go? I want to use this for anodizing titanium
@@natelund2914 Hi Nate 30V and 5 amps
Step by step you'll get there keep going very nice videos
Thank you!
Nice introductory video, very accessible. Looking forward to other videos, for instance a demonstration of the Arduino would be great.
Thanks J S! I'm currently in the process of making solar powered Ferris wheel Arduino project and will be uploading that soon.
should the cooling fan start spinning once powered on or is it activated by a temperature control sensor?
My unit shows the dot in the second position (00.00 amps) and I saw many photos and videos like yours that show the dot in a different position (.000 amps)which means a different resolution, how do I change the resolution of the amps?
Would love to see how the unit is doing after 4 years of usage.
the slight drop in voltage will be the resistance of the leads your using
if i limit the current to 5a then hook up a load that is only taking 2a could i turn up the current to feed it more? say 2.5a or is it stuck only giving it the power it wants when i turn it on
no if you have a resistor that limits the current to 2A, the only thing you would be able to do is increase the voltage. Otherwise you could try taking out any resistors and limiting the current solely through the current limit dial. I test out the integrity of LEDs like this all of the time.
How well written is the users manual? The usability, small size, features, make it a great find! I plan on getting the same one. Have to ask questions! Thanks for a good, hands on review! 🤓
What is the point of having a ground plug. I've seen units that have them and units that don't. I thought negative and ground were the same.
Nice
what happens if you join the 2 tips the screen is set to 0 or it keeps marking the voltage
there is a shortage protector so it you join the tips while its live, the supply automatically stops supplying.
Just got one for electrolysis on removing rust. New “smart” battery chargers won’t work.
pretty cool..............:-)
What exactly does this machine do I found one and have no clue what it is for
It generates DC voltages between 0-30 volts at 0-5 Amps.
Does anyone know if you can set the constant current to 1 miliamp?
You can go up in increments of one milliamperes. So theoretically you can set your current limit to one mA. However, I don’t know how accurate it would be.
@@engineerjoules7163 I accually went ahead and bought it and it does start at 1ma. With a meter it ready 1.2ma so really accuarate
@@thewrenchjockey4251 That's good know thanks for the insight.
I don't know how much you paid for this but it doesn't seem too special compared to gophert nps 1601
I wasn't able to find the one that you were talking about but this one in particular cost me around $70USD
It seems that you like the word "pretty" very much. Pretty here, pretty there.
All in your Video is pretty - I counted it more than 15 times.
Thanks for sharing!
Video is “ pretty good” thanks for your time and effort.
Ignorance is bliss.
