[sdiy] +/-15V Power Supplies MPJA? Help!

[J. Larry Hendry]

Well, these supplies are surplus.  So, you never know exactly what they will
have.  One thing about buying surplus.  If you see what you want get it now
as they might not have it later.

I bought some a while back for $24 each that will deliver 5 amps per 15 volt
leg.  The only one I currently see in the list of surplus supplies that
looks synth friendly is:

http://www.mpja.com/product.asp?product=12047+PS

It has a 5V output too.  But the price is not bad for a 1 amp per rail
supply.

Hi folks,

I missed the thread on the power supplies from MPJA, but luckily Ken Stone
forwarded the info below to me. However, I tried to find something on the
MPJA site that fit the description and couldn't. :0( Newbie syndrome.

I'd *really* like to get an $18 Power One power supply with +/-15V as
described below. I see it's actually a 12V item - is it hard to adjust it to
15v?

Also, is this item enclosed or what does it look like?

This is the info Ken sent me, posted by Andy(?)

Any help or leads to the right item on the MPJA site would be greatly
appreciated.

Thank you!

John G
