Default RE: computer Power supply

Hi jlkonn,

Just being conservative in that recomendation, what you just described would work fine from now till doomsday, but if you are going to fast charge large packs you will go over 5 amps real fast. Also too, consider when using a computer P.S. their is not much filtration, as most of the caps. are on the MoBo. I guess my main point is that if you are going to the trouble to recycle an old P.S. find one that can handle a heavy load.

Regards,

Pete
