Power supply

Today got my brand new bench power supply I can use for high current/high voltage applications. I have run all my previous electronics projects off simple batteries. However, this project here requires experimentation with high current DC motors.

So the model is MATRIX MPS-3005L-3. It has one fixed output at 5V/3A and two variable outputs at 0-30V/0-5A. It has a big-ass fan at the back that is quite noisy. But I guess that was to be expected. Pretty heavy too - 8kg.

It is clearly Chinese though, as all cheap electronics these days. This can be readily verified from this chinglish:
