At this time, we are not doing any reviews on power supplies. One of the switches on our load tester failed after testing the Bliss 600W power supply. We are going to revamp the the load tester with a new custom made case and more loading capacity. If all goes according to plan, it will end up looking something like this

Here we go. The connectors still look a bit rough, but it works fine. I might fix those up once I get a better PCB for it and some proper connectors (rather than using parts scavenged from fans and old HDDs).

That's really really awesome. How much did it cost you to build that? I want one

Probably around $800. Getting the case made up was the real killer. I think that was around $550.

Yeah, I did. Otherwise, it would have been somewhere in the order of $250-300.
