But many power supplies are only efficient when they don't operate close to full load.
This seemed counterintuitive to me, so I decided to do a little looking around. According to the graph on page 14 of "Power Supplies: A Hidden Opportunity for Energy Savings" http://standby.lbl.gov/CEC_Workshop/Docs/Ecos_FinalReport.pdf this is not the case.
It very much depends on the power supply in question.
Of course. But to go back to the original question (mine), the issue is whether highly over-rated supply is wasteful of power. It appears they are. Randall Schulz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
