Those are good looking units, Tony. Thank you for opening them up. Too bad they didn't spend a few dollars more for quieter, variable speed fans. Regards, David
Hi Tony, you have it beautiful, it fits perfectly, I will have to stick with my resistive shunts if I need a heavy load. Edit: Stamos I have a soldering station - hot air + pen and it works fine. Nice day 😉 Tom
I appreciate your sharing of the rebranding research. Way of the world these days. I can excuse the loud fans on my 1990's gear; but why can't they now spend a few more bucks on the fans for quietness? Gone are the days of available schematics and theory of operation manuals. Oh well, it's all microprocessors now. Have you tested the loads' frequency response against their spec's? Might that be an important issue? Your racks are getting denser! Thanks.
Thanks! Yes i prob want a variable and better fans later. Yes not very indepth as always, but you can find a very good review from Nico on EEVblog i left a link in the description.
Great video! A quick question, assuming I was working with 15VDC, does the 1500W rating on this load translate to an ability for it to handle around 100A continuously, in the real world? 73
Thanks! Good question, to be honest, that was my thought exacly. but the max current is still 40Amps .. becouse it is limited to the current shunt used in the main unit. later on in this video in the teardown i explain a bit more. it is a pity indeed the 40A limit. but it least you can now run 40A upto 37 volts.
@@TonyAlbus Thanks for the great reply! What I really want is a high current load for doing work under 15 volts. Would that Chinese unit you picked up recently do a better job of lower voltage high currents?
@@mostlypostie1 The EastTester ET5301 i have, can do 60A indeed, but it is only 400Watts , so that is at 60Amps only 6.6 Volts. With a better Current shunt, the Korad could easy do it, if you look how it is build. compair to the EastTester with only 6 FETs foor 400watts at 60Amps.. i wonder how fast that goes into smoke :) .. lets see.

Thank you David, yes 100% agree, better fans or at least a variable control. But yes get what you pay for, its lots of power for your buck.

Thanks Tom! Yes very happy now it is like this. BTW Resistive Shunts are very nice, very clean load. Nice!
A good candidate for a fan upgrade or PWM control 👍
Yes for sure!
I enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work
Thank you!

1500W!!!!!, woooooow!!!!!, i need this....
Yeah.. Powerrrr....
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much!.. yes big power!
😊👍🏻
Thank you!
Hello, does this have the capacity to show a graph of a battery discharge?
Hi, not that i know of, but i need to play more with it. usualy those stats you do with the PC connected or via CSV export. then you make a graph.
@@TonyAlbus I intend to buy one of 500 W but I need to know if it has this ability right on the screen, like Rigol does.
@@gearstil don't risk it... the Korad is not that advanced. it just pure power.
'Brand'? what is that? I wonder if even the Chinese government keeps track of them. BTW I did buy the Kaiweets tool set. 73
Rebranding prob makes to production cheaper for higher qty's, i like this product. nice tool!
