Somehow when I was shopping for Server PSU I missed this site.

Anyone want to weigh in on which one to pick?

If I was going to go for 8 in series 96V total that leaves only 187W for each PSU to supply with the 110v 1500W circuit limit, so the 400W is more than enough for that. Although for near the same price I could get higher power ones which is good if I reused them in smaller units.

Keep in 400w psu will only do 33A even at lower pack voltage. So like if you wanted to charge a 10s , you’d be limited to 400w/12v = 33 A instead of 1500/36v which is 41A.

Might matter, might not. But if you’re charging under 30 Amps, are you even charging?
