That's why we refrained so far from using switching power supplies. All our
tests with switching power supplies were not satisfying and we still use the
old-fashioned linear regulation technique in all our A-100 power supplies
(both A-100PSU2 and the supply of the DIY kit). If anybody is interested in
12V/5A switching power supplies we have some of them in our special list at
a very low price (much less than our purchase price, only Euro 25 each).

Best wishes
