Default RE: computer Power supply

FYI: (quoted from ICE manual)
To achieve Ice’s absolute maximum output power capabilities the DC power
source must be capable of delivering at least 15 amps of current while
maintaining 12 volts DC (although 12.5A will be enough for most functions).


High cell counts at high charge rates may take more current than a 10A supply can handle. I know when i was charging 8 cells at 5A, the charger was drawing ~7-8A iirc.
