Hmm, maybe Deepfry Institute of Insanity did pay off...

Amps = watts/volts: Amps = 500/12 or 41 approx. So 34 is a safe bet. That is pretty high. I have a 25 amp PS from Pyramid. It never sees a draw higher than 5 or 6 amps, so you have lots of overkill. Looks like Hands has a good conversion process.
