This time we make this unique looking 180W Lab Bench Power Supply Unit/Battery Charger from some spare components, scrap parts, & the main module to this project being this Digital Step down converter Variable Power Supply module.
With an adjustable DC output of up to 36 volts & 5 amps out of this cool little box, the applications to what you can power with it are endless... From prototyping with fun circuits, to testing whichever components you need to test, to even powering a common household device through this thing, a power supply is a hands down essential apparatus to have at your workbench!
This DIY Power Supply has also been featured in the Australian "DIYODE" Magazine!

Hey everyone! Thanks for watching! This DIY Power Supply has also been featured in the Australian "DIYODE" Magazine! Read and learn more about it from their 60th issue here: diyodemag.com/features/project_power_diy_variable_lab_bench_power_supply

[@howtomake_614]

It's so amazing

[@doug_1489]

Its a really cool thing...but im just a pc techie and you lost me at about 8 min so I had to go and find the "for dummies" versions of all the other stuff, cool vid though 👍🏻

[@edwardfletcher7790]

My only issue is the repetitive music 🤮 Most of the big KZbinrs channels use the copyright free music from the Kevin MacLeod free library....

[@bru57000]

WARNING ! RCA sockets are not designed to feed current (2amp max), use banana sockets instead (10 or 15 amp max)

[@MaxImagination]

Thanks for your tip. However, if modified correctly, the sockets should work fine for carrying that amount of current.

[@aquilafasciata5781]

Better yet, use Anderson Powerpoles

[@whipbone]

That’s not necessarily true, I have a really thick high quality cord the auto rca on it is small but the video you can tell it’s a lot thicker wire and you can see the connector is beefer. I use it with my amateur radio, I’m sure there is quality ones that support more amperage from radio / video equipment stores

[@spongerobert]

This power supply is action packed with features plus all components can be sourced quite easily. In the end you have an invaluable tool for most electronic projects. Using recycled parts is also a huge bonus!

[@MaxImagination]

Thanks for your comment!

[@rickymeadows5176]

Love seeing younger generation folks taking initiative to do projects like this ! After 40-years of being a machinist , I watch their skills using crude tools & angle grinders & think to myself " my God, what could these kids build if they had access to a bonafide machine shop " ? Great vid !

[@lo2740]

except, we never use a switching power supply, even less DCDC bucks for a lab bench power supply, for many good reasons 🤦‍♂ , connecting a bunch of cheap DCDC modules with a switching power supply doesnt make anything else than "youtube content" it surely deosnt make a lab bench power supply;

[@3012paul]

You used very powerful power supply which can output 20A at 12V but you used 5A step down converter why?

[@MaxImagination]

That's so I can give it future upgrades with higher power step down converters and other power-related peripherals such as chargers.

[@PlayNowWorkLater]

Best DIY Bench Power Supply video I have yet seen. And I’ve watched a lot of them. I might use your PVC pipe method you used with your recent RC car body instead of the boards, otherwise it’s pretty sweet. Glad I found your channel

[@magnum164]

Good job on this, helps a lot on ideas. Only thing I would suggest having worked with Lion batteries for so many years, the actual voltage of the battery is far more important than an indicator light. If the voltage is

[@MaxImagination]

Thanks for your comment and pointing out this interesting but important key thing about Li-Ions. I've charged old cells that got pretty warm when charging but still charged up. Yes, they are probably the most unsafe battery cells to work with, so precaution is number one. I appreciate your input on the project, good for others to keep in mind as well. Cheers!

[@nofahphp2443]

mengumpulkan banyak module, menggabungkan nya dalam satu kemasan, terlihat seperti memaksakan banyak fitur dalam satu box yang kurang layak. dari biaya yang anda keluarkan untuk semua komponen tentunya anda sudah bisa membeli Bench Power Supply yang di rakit oleh pabrik dengan fitur yang sama bahkan lebih canggih, dan tentunya bentuk chasing yang bagus dan simple

[@rustyzipperband]

Might as well just buy one going this route. I’m looking to build one from components. Yes I will say it looks pretty good but how much do you have in it as far as cost?

[@MaxImagination]

I made the mistake of purchasing the SMPS converter when I could have used a PC ATX supply unit. One could save $20 here. I spent a total of around $50 making this PSU.

[@spongerobert]

@@MaxImagination Your way is better if you're doing everything from scratch. I would maybe do it in 2 parts. Regular ATX PSU to supply the 12v and 5V and then all the other doodads in a separate case but adding easy battery connectors is a really cool idea as it makes it somewhat portable. Or even better, power the whole thing with an old laptop power brick especially if you have a beefy 130w brick lying around.

Yup, I did the best with what I had at hand. Thanks for your comment and pointing things out!

[@garrettgiuffre5653]

Just curious why didn't you just use an old power supply from a computer it's already square it already generates power

[@MaxImagination]

You have a point. Sometimes we don't always think of the simplest solutions until having already made the project and hearing feedback from viewers such as yourself. That's a viable solution for saving $20 on this build. Cheers.

Hi there. It works for me fine as it is, I use it every day for testing my circuits. If I were to improve it, I'd probably just add a fuse at the AC input and some better connectors for power (|Banana Jacks).
