I am most interested in that DC power supply. I bought a similar one recently (rgeek brand on aliexpress), but haven't yet dared to connect it yet.

I'm wondering what:

- the failure mode is if it can't provide enough current.

- How to properly test it under a fake load

- If these tiny power cables can really handle 150 W (this is 12 A at 12V). I don't have such a powerful 12V PSU, so I am thinking about adding capacitors to handle transients.

I imagine that it is really built to handle transient peaks to 150 W, with a more reasonable baseline.

Anyway, if anyone knows a good knowledge source for these PSU, I'd be interested.

My initial motication for going with these was:

- hopefully increase my PSU efficiency

- less cable clutter

- hopefully power it from a small DC UPS (there are plenty of "router" UPS sold on the market, though the power rating is a bit low, 18-36 W usually).
