IRRC the price on new server PSs are more than what they are selling them for...


also, according to MA, if you have an alloy cased charger, if it touchs the PS everything goes boom... hell, I have all of my chargers stacked on my server PS...



EDIT: I did have jason on the first time, but I waited 10min with no response....






















zach : Question
new power supply

Clint Preston : Welcome to MaxAmps.com live help. I'll do my best to assist you.
Clint Preston : Yes
zach : hello??
Clint Preston : Yes?
zach : what happens when the 2 cases on your new 24v power supply touch?
Clint Preston : They don't touch. We have insulating tape and Kapton tape between the two creating a barrier.
zach : what if something like a hex driver crosses the back/front case for a sec.
Clint Preston : I just checked with our tech support. They mentioned that yes that would cause a spark so not to do that.
zach : so you are selling a product that could easily start a fire if bumped?
Clint Preston : Basically, just like a metal cased charger can't touch the power supply it is connected to with shorting. Just be careful when using conductive items together.
zach : I do not know of any chargers that use the case as a ground, 99% of them have the boards insulated from the case... the only ones that I can think of that would are the elcheapo generics that HK sells...
Clint Preston : If you need further info on this, I would suggest calling in and speaking with our Tech department.
zach : 1 more question, why are you not advertising the 100ish amps that they will put out when hooked to 240vac, it seems a little more MAish if they were...
Clint Preston : Again, sorry but...If you need further info on this, I would suggest calling in and speaking with our Tech department.
