Spotted this while browsing Ebay and thought it may be a decent buy for a beginner?

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rapid-Electronics-30V-10A-DC-Regulated-power-supply/283372173587?hash=item41fa4c3913:g:VhYAAOSwRaFcXtj8

Prob get it £5 cheaper on an offer or there about.

May be good for someone....

Enclosure design looks like Manson.
It'll be a switcher, of decent quality if it is a Manson.
Absolutely don't like the loudspeaker contacts for the 5V / 12V output, that's just cheap crap.

10A is a bit "oversized" for a beginner, 30V would be fine for many purposes.

Yes you may be right.

I was just thinking for £15 it may be ok for someone just starting out. They don't need the best of everything to see if electronics is for them.
If they decide they are going to stick with it obviously a better 1 would come in time and if not they haven't shelled out £££'s on a power supply that they will no longer use.

It's an auction, 20 is just the starting price.
