Hmmm I get the impression that my Meanwell might be considered ugly.
It's beauty is on the inside, and in its function.:0
And if you got a problem with that, my 40 amp charger will beat your charger into submission. 19.23 borgification volts available on request. Buhahwahahhaaaaaaa
Of the dozen or so of the heatsinks that Westend mailed me, I chose those which would be easiest to be fitted to the recesses on the casing and have the most surface area.
The black one on the top right took a lot of effort to grind the base to fit the casing depression. The black heatsinks on the bottom, well I wished I expended the same effort for more total heatsink surface area. The heatsinks on the bottom seem to stay the warmest. Not sure if it is because they are on the bottom, or the transistors on that side of the case generate more heat.
More fans.
