Power Supply Envy....
MuchMore Power Master Legend (~$200)
So I broke down and got what I think is the coolest power supply out there. 44 amps of DC goodness. I looked at smaller cheaper ones along the way but just couldn't get away from this one. Price be damned, it is too damn sexy! Too much power is never a bad thing and all the hook up ports are sweet. I may be a fashion whore, but hey, I have to look at it on the bench all day long at a race, might as well be pretty! haha. So if you are pitting next to me, feel free to tap into the gluttony of power I now possess!
The contenders were (quick rundown):
Much More Power Master 24 Amp (~$140)
+ Powerful little package
+ Good looks
+Dual outputs
- Higher priced
- No USB port
ProTek RC 40 Amp (~$130)
+ Awesome value
+ USB Port
- Not as good looking
- Only 1 output for this much power
Competition Electronics 23 Amp (~$130)
+ Decent power for price
- Single output

ProTek RC 20 Amp (~$65)

don't forget, that if you use the matching muchmore charger, you can dock it right to the top, and no wires to connect the charger to the power supply! :)
I will be using Orion Race Spec charger (of course) but I will plug them into the docking plugs on top to keep it looking clean.
