Lab Bench PSU (KIT12S)
[KIT12S]

They say "local is lekka" and this holds true for this kit.No fancy bells and whistles, just the necessary stuff to get you up and running.

Spend another +/- R1500 for a decent transformer, enclosure, heatsink, knobs, dials and panel meters and you are set for the next 20+ years with one of the most reliable benchtop power supplies available today.

This kit option is much better value for money, considering that about 8 out of 10 lab power supplies in the range of R3000+ sold in SA nowadays utilize a derivative of this very same circuit.

Then add to this the feeling of pride that you built it all yourself!
