content: Are these the original knobs?And it was a rack unit or? Because it does not have any feet? So no air circulation without feets?

content: Knobs are original.Indeed, rack unit. Feet can be easily added (good rubber feet can be purchased for 2-5 EUR), to be chosen depending on the intended use.

content: Quote from: Noy on May 10, 2020, 01:01:14 pmAs a seller will not comment directly on the price, that is up to the potential buyers to decide. I will just say though that on fleebay these typically go for +1,000 EUR used. Will not mention/use as a reference the price when new cause one may fall from the chair.You're probably not familiar with Toellner since comparing it with DP832A. As a hobbyist one can definitely be served well by a DP832A, but even so and just to set the record straight the model I am selling has double the power, double to output voltage and more than double the output current of 832A. That is before we go in other performance aspects.

content: I'm familar with toellner. I have some devices from them here and at work.I know they are rock solid and pretty well build .And first i tought about to pull the trigger on your offer. But currently i have enough "normal" power supplys.I'm only missing one which i can programm for example i can adjust the slew rate (not only 2 options like your device offers) at switching on and other stuff. Your toellner with the arbitrary function would be an option. But unfortunally it doesn't have it.And if you don't need the power of this device there are plenty of other options which are a bit more interestingly for the same price.

content: Quote from: Noy on April 27, 2020, 06:19:18 amHello!FYI, those knobs are original, but it seems they are missing some caps. So maybe someone took out the front panel PCB for some reason. It should also have 4 standing feet, but I think this one was used in a rack unit and those feet were removed (...and lost).Below is a photo of the same PSU from my workplace. I also have photos from the inside if someone is interested.

content: Quote from: paulbt on June 04, 2020, 08:52:37 amIt looks like the unit sold here took a hit to the front panel, considering there's a fold running across it. I can't really imagine a light knock causing that.
