Korad KA3005P power supply
Details
Tip from our expert:This popular programmable, linear power supply has an excellent price/quality ratio. With an adjustment precision of 10mV/1mA, the voltage and current can be regulated accurately. The power supply has a separate switch to turn the power supply on and off. The device has 5 memory slots for storage and recalling of output settings.
The Korad is programmable via the supplied software and via a USB or RS232 connection.
Models
The difference between the two models we offer can be found in the connectors at the front. We offer a model with screw connectors and a model with safety connectors. The advantage of the model with screw connectors is that both banana plugs and separate wires can be inserted. Both models are identical in terms of functions and properties.

A really good experience shopping for the first time from eleshop. The model of the power supply they sell here, seems to have solved issues present in earlier revisions of the product, that is, annoying fan and equally annoying beeper. This is the best linear power supply for the money!

The circuits are even newer than the revisioned ones I could find online before purchasing it.
No ripple,
No overshoot under load at 30V,
and only 90 euros before tax.
What else could I ask for?
PS. They even fixed the beeper. It has a clean pleasant sound now.
