David Maynard said:Yes, well, loaded "WITHIN the specifications" wouldn't cause an
over-current protector to kick in, now would it?
I didn't say the things were properly designed and those are good examples
of how just having 'protection' (even when it's listed in the
specifications) doesn't necessarily mean squat if it isn't done right.
It would seem from the examples that those PSUs were built with way
under-rated components.
More likely the wattage ratings on them were way inflated, ever seen those
"600 WATT" pc speakers with the 0.75W amp chip in them?
