I believe the PM3 is the old version, PM4 is the new version. I think someone said the 3 is 3 stage charger and 4 is 4 stage charger. There should be a switch on the side to switch between battery charger mode and fixed output. Checkout the reviews on Amazon, several hams are using these. eHam has a good review too.

So it was fast shipping but no email notice of shipping, it just showed up. Good thing it wasnt raining.
Definitely will have to be a little creative with these small terminals.
I have a little 2 pill ill try it out with later today or tomorrow. Been busy putting a new roof on the house this week. Still have to finish screwing it down. New siding is next.

Fan on the megawatt is very quiet and the unit seems well filtered. I like this model better than the s-1200 I had.This seems like a cheap deal for a 60 amp $43 canadian on amazon but probably load for fans as I notice of this type ps, I have to ebay 30 amp units and fans are loud.
This was the best I could do after filtering thru my junk pile(s)
What wire gauge and what size lug are you using on the black and yellow wire?
DXman
Yes, that's 3100 degrees F. Nine yrs of hard work.
Those connectors actually came with the unit.
As far as the gauge wire I havent a clue and the lugs came with the unit. I know they were a little too big for my crimper
Those same red connectors came with my S-700-12 MegaWatt power supply.
I had to place the crimper one handle down on the workbench and push hard on the other handle but I got them to crimp.

Was going to say my 30/33 didn't include them. I'm stuck running 10ga for about 2' to my Palomar 4 pill (as a base setup). But think I should be good for now.
I also have two S-400-12 MegaWatt power supplies.
I zapped one of those power supplies with a 4-pill TNT amp. Got carried away talking SSB skip put TNT on high setting & turned up power slightly on AT-6666. I new better.
That was not enough power supply for the 4-pill.
The radio and the 4-pill were running off two different S-400-12 power supplies. Radio and Amp are OK....power supply, nope.
probably going to get a PowerMax 100 supply.
