Up to 15 or less what?

The hyperion duo is max output 360W. Assuming 80% efficiency (about average for these things) u need a 450W PS.

The duo can take up to 28V input, making your usable power supply cheaper. you could get a 28V power supply capable of delivering 16A

Or if you wanted to stick with something more compatible with other chargers, a 13.8V that can hold its own at just over 32A (say 35 to be safe).

Or, best case is to get something variable. Doesnt need to be CCCV power supply like the mastech ones everyone loves so much, but something like this
(less than half the price of a cccv 30V/20A here, note the aussie link, would be a lot cheaper in the states) would be more than ample for all your power supply needs.
