New Uni-t UDP4303S Powersupply
dexar:
Looks like UNI-T have released a new 4 channel power supply the UDP4303S. Looks like a big brother to the UDP3000S. And of course they choose black like everybody else.
1uA resolution, sense on all four channels and 6V/10A on one of the channels is really tempting me.
ArcticGeek:
I agree that this is a pretty nice power supply. It has a nice array of features and I love the new black appearance.
In my opinion, Uni-T is the brand to watch in the upcoming future. Here in the USA, they now have a couple of dealers that sell some of their products (including Tequipment.net), and they also boast support for their products here in the US. I know lots of folks have complained about Uni-T's non-existent support, but it appears to me that they might be trying to turn that around.

Seems like Tequipment has added them to the homepage so now we have a price at $1,399. I thought it would compete with Siglents SPD4000X or Hantek HDP4424 but it is almost double the money. Are they trying to escape the image of a low end brand?

Yes they are escaping the image, look at their latest signal generator, UTG9604T 600MHz $6,000.
SPD4121X $780 for 285W. SPD4306X is $950 for 400W. UDP4303S 300W for $1400.
But these are 1mA resolution. The uni-t is 1uA resolution display. So you are paying ~$500 more for 1uA and a few extra sense terminals. Enough to buy a dedicated 5.5 digit DMM.
IMO they've overpriced it. But you can see how they could easily have justified the price, since there is nothing similar to it.
dexar:
The question is if they will offer firmware updates and it will perform as the datasheet promises. It feels like a gamble buying it in contrast with buying from one of the old reputable A brands which is the competitor with this price.
