I'm sick and tired of using my battery bank and battery charge in my "lab"(garage). So, I'm going to finally put my EE know-how to use on this and stop using the "ghetto" setup I have. I'm going to build a high power DC Power Supply.
What it will consist of, is a high power switch mode power supply that runs off the 120VAC(house plug). It's going to convert this 120VAC to an adjustable voltage output between 0V and maybe whatever... maybe up to 100V. No bulky transformers or anything. Here are some preliminary specs:
Output Voltage: 0V - 100VDC (?) --Variable-- Update: 100V @ < 10A
Output Current: 0A - 50A (?) (50A @ 20V, 10A @ 100V - 1kW total power output)
Input Voltage: 120VAC - 240VAC
Input Current: ~10A
Switching Freq.: To be determined(~30kHz?)
Anyway, when I build something for myself, I typically like to build a couple more to sell off or give to a friend since it's usually cheaper to by more than qty 1 of the parts.
Would anyone be interested in one of these? Price would be ~$150 (Updated: was ~$50 or $60) I think. This is going to be a very stable supply of power for your HHO cell. AND it's adjustable so you can find just the right voltage drop per cell...
