I've had a 'Walt Williams' power supply for a little over 35 years, yesterday it died. You'd have to have had one to understand, it's been a work horse.
It's a 70 amp power supply (at least!), and hasn't been turned off for more than a week in that 35 years. I told him I wanted a 70 amp supply and that's what he calibrated the meters for. It will do (did) well over that amount of current. Shorted it once with a 7 foot ground strap once. Turned that strap to ashes and never even 'grunted', you could weld with it. Mr. Williams has been gone for a number of years, ain't never gonna find another one.
It's big. Secondary windings on the transformer are the size of your little finger, ugly, weighs something like 60 pounds. I've run several radios off of it at the same time with no trouble at all. @#$, now what the hell am I gonna do?
