Hi Alex, good job, could you show how you did it? Everything I find on the internet is about the DSP 1200 which has less power, but the voltage can be regulated. I can't find anything about this 1400w one. It would be a great video explaining what you bought and how you did it. thank you
Hi, it's made from used parts. Here's a video about the making of something similar: ruclips.net/video/3zKvxx2WdX4/видео.html You buy an used HP server power source from eBay (about 60-80 euro) with 1200-1600 watt output and you modify it to push around 14v. I found an used broke welding machine just for the case (around 20-30 euro) and pulled everything out of it. You can use the already mounted cable ports for the big output wires. You buy a good set of jumping cables (about 70-100 euro) and modify them to connect to the machine plugs if you want them removable. You buy an current meter kit ( amazon about 30 euro) which includes the display and the shunt resistor - I went for 150 amps model. You do the wiring and you're good to go. It's shocking the fact that those little server power sources can put out so many amps and such a clean voltage. All in all you should be good to go for about 2-300 euros depending on what you find. Before buying the power source check on RUclips the model and see the way it has to be modified for 14v output, the mainboards inside are not the same so go with one you can find details. Have fun!

Hi! The mods are pretty much identical to the 1200w one. When you will open it, you'll find the same circuit board. Have fun!
Great work, can you tell me how you build it?
Did you have Email or something?
Best Regards
