DIY Mini Lab Bench Power Supply (With Switchable DC and AC Input)

Ғылым және технология

This video will show you how to make a small yet functional lab bench power supply, with the added feature of being able to power it from any DC power source anywhere between 3 and 50V.
Warning: Working with 110V or 220V is extremely dangerous without proper knowledge. Please consult a professional if unsure. I am not responsible for injuries or damages caused by this power supply during build or use.

    The solder job at 8:49 was horrendous, although some of the other joints were not QUITE so bad. Some of the soldering footage was at 2x speed though, so it looks like he withdraws the iron too early but may not be quite as bad as it seems. (Still, I agree, the results are not fabulous by any means. This is a problem when working with mains, earthing, etc...)

If you want to get a 3D printer that is cheap and easy to repair, then I recommend the Creality Ender 3 pro. I bought this printer for 120$ from ebay and it just worked fine, after I printed 3D upgrade parts to improve the 3D printing capabilities with this printer.

    Nice build, may I suggest using a thermal speed controller for the fan instead of a switch or just auto full on. This way you prolong the life of the fan and also have the appropriate speed to match the temperature needed to be cooled. Edit** I am looking to do something similar with a toroidal transformer that has 2 suitable secondary windings that will give me a 5v Fast Charge USB and 2x 12v outputs as well as two additional windings (with on/off switches of course) to use as a dual variable supplies
