The Big Powersupply Finished (12,000 Watt)

The big Powersupply finally finished, only took me 4 years...
rated at 12,000 watts continuous and 24,000+ watts for short bursts, 120/240 and in built ballast.

nice

[@VariacManiac]

That's a nice control box. It's nice to have multiple functions available. I like the little pole transformer too! Seeing your new videos is getting me eager to get back to it! Sad that it might be a while. Hoping to have more videos up by late this spring, if not earlier.

I'll watch em when you get to them, and I'm already scheming on how I would build it better and different maybe even use a varaic as a variable inductor to limit current

[@luca87375]

I can do 44kW continuous at home, just because we are not retdarded and use single/split phase

[@controlandpower]

It does suck very much that the US has decided on split phase, but me being an electrician I can get a lot more juice if I need it...

[@DanielSquidington]

Looks much more complicated than anything Photon used to have.

[@concernedcitizen3163]

Photons was more complicated but built tidier

[@controlandpower]

His was definitely cleaner, the wiring to the buttons is very neat but I forgot to show that I will in the next one. But I've rebuilt it so many times off camera so it's not going to be clean but maybe if I build a new one it will be

r them light ballasts i see

[@controlandpower]

Yesir built right in they need a little tuning but they're nice, I may draw up the schematic if people want it
