This is a Compact Switching 12V, 7A Power Supply.
ONE YEAR WARRANTY
***********This item can NOT be used as a power supply for the************
********* Great Planes TRITON series or the DuraTrax ICE charger ************
********* It does not meet these chargers' current requirements **************
FEATURES: Very efficient 22kHz high frequency switching operation(see COMMENTS
Smallest, most lightweight Power Supply transformers available,
allows for this very compact design.
Built-in miniature cooling fan increases efficiency and lifespan
Built-in thermal protection with auto-reset and overload protection
Unique 7.5A fuse-protected terminal block adapter w/4' extension
cord for remote DC power access. Includes pre-installed connectors,
large color-coded terminal posts for easy connection of external
devices, replaceable overload fuse, and pre-fabricated pads for
hard-wiring devices directly to the pc board.
Directly compatible w/the IntelliPeak chargers from DuraTrax (except
the IntelliPeak ICE) Power Supply has a one year warranty.

COMMENTS: This is a "Switching" Power Supply as opposed to a "Linear" power
supply. "Switching" refers to the technical method in which power
is converted from AC to DC.
-"Linear" power supply is one which simply takes 110V AC, runs it
through a step down transformer, then rectifies the AC to become
DC. Typically such Power Supplies are big, heavy, often quite
noisy electrically, and usually inexpensive.
-"Switching" Power Supply takes in the 110V AC, bumps it up, then
through a series of switching regulators and inductor circuits,
filters out the DC voltage, which is then stepped down using
solid-state circuitry. Switching supplies are usually fairly small
and lightweight since there is no big transformer, but still
capable of delivering a lot of power, and usually more expensive.
