Yes you are correct. It is a bit pricey in comparison to using a home made rig out of two used PC type server power supplies. That is the point of my post. Finally someone has made a professional "made for R/C" PSU that we can purcahse already setup for what we do. Plus it is auto swtching for 120-240volts input. That is what makes this unit a must have and worth the cost. I am just not a fan of using home made electronics fabbed from using stuff meant for something entirely different. Sure its all about what you can afford and what attracts your sense of taste. This particular unit is exactly what I need, and what I want. Not some hodge podge converted computer PSU. For me thats like buying a Porsche kit car for a VW bug, when what you really want is a Porsche 911. The kit works just fine for some, but its not worth the trade off for me.
The lab PSU's are also pretty nice, and worth comparing in general. Of course money is an issue for most of us these days.
