    Hey bro,

    This cheap PS will do, no need to to waste $$.

      The accucel6 is rated 12V 6A. So you would want a power supply to be rated at 6A or slightly higher.

      Most Laptop power supply is rating +19V, so watch out for that.

      Personally, I'm using a Currens 13A power supply CSM-815D.

      Datasheet

      Website if you're interested.

      Don't ask me how much cos I totally forgotten.

        Ok for anyone wishing to have a higher voltage out of a ATX psu, here is a simple tip.
        For 15.3V you put +12V on the positive of your charger and +3.3V on the negative of your charger.
        For 17V it is +12V and +5V, for 8.7V you can do +12V and -3.3V etc etc.
        You can measure the voltages with your multimeter if unsure.
        The only thing to watch out for is the max current each rail can output (3.3V normally can't output much current).
        +12V and +5V can output the most current so just use them if you want a higher voltage.

          I don't think so, two positive should actually cancel out each other.
          If you put +12V on the positive of your charger and +5V on the negative of your charger, it should come out as 7V.
          Instead you will get 15.3V when you put +12V on the positive of your charger and -3.3V on the negative of your charger.
          Right? I havent touch electrics for 2 years, correct me if im wrong.

            zxyong is right. I think there are some errors in mill's post.

            Anyway, I don't think ATX PSUs have output for -3.3V.
            Everyone has to start this hobby as newbie.

              Anyone interested in building the 12V/24V 47A power supply out of the HP DPS 600 PB server power supplies?

                  OK I'll do a build thread when I can.

                      Great ! Looking forward to the thread. I'm really interested to see how to daisy chain them together safely to get 24v.

                      Thank you.
