Mean Well power supply for my usage
I've been reading old threads for a couple of hours. I'm fairly sure a Mean Well p.s. can do what I want to do, but I'd appreciate if one of you early adopters can point me to a specific model, etc. ...

Buy one already. Set it at 14.8V or 15.0V add wire, mount it out of the elements, close to the batteries, in storage area, and run fat wire, call it good.
Your needs are the same as mine, it works fine. Always connect to the battery first before turning on the PSU.
Thanks. Yes, I am convinced that the Mega Watt would do what I want, albeit with a few amps less than I want. Now I'm wondering if a 45 or 60 amp PM3 Power Max would do the same, only more, once the pot is adjusted. It sounds like it. But I can't get a handle the reliablity issues. Both BFL and J have had issues with their PM units, but in all the threads and posts, I just can't get for sure if it was due to turning up the voltage or what. That's the last remaining question I have as far as what's been discussed in this thread. :)
If I can't get a handle on that, I'll just punt for now, and keep an eye on developments. I don't need to do anything for a couple of months.
