Mini Review - 150w Load Unit

I take it you mean the unit you mentioned in this post? Good to hear it's working well. Please let us know what you think about the data feed after you get that part running. You have me thinking about buying one of those now.

Sorry to hear about your 60w problems. Is it the same unit that HKJ reviewed? Sometimes back lighting the pcb can reveal issues. Close up macro shots blown up on a computer screen can sometimes reveal shorts and cold solder joints. Maybe share the picture in HKJ's review. It may reveal a failure point that others should be aware of.

I think that time waiting for the orders to arrive contributes to the addition.

Here are a couple shots from a discharge test I ran this morning at 10amps (cut off 2v):

I'm so digging this 150w load unit. I recently had to repair a shunt that I was using to measure current in a light. I had to repair it because one of the leads broke off. Anyone that makes these (see this thread on how to make them), knows the lead positioning and even how solder deposits are key to getting an accurate reading. Temperature is also important. At the time I performed the repair, I was in a big rush and just ball parked the repair based on the where the solder broke. I decided to measure it today using 4 ways to measure current flowing through it. I used the 150w Load unit to control the current flow and the DPS5015 to provide and verify the 10 amps (Set it to 12v and 15a). They all show that I need to move the lead a little further way from other lead. So cool to have another reference point.
