OK, did a 10 amp test, no heat to speak of.  (30 volts).  

Having a hard time finding a half ohm load at 150 watts.  

Used a coil of #16 wire which was too high (impedance) of a load.  

Also, putting two Astron power supplies in series.
They don’t play well with each other.  

I used to have a coil of nichrome.  May need to find that.

No, 7 amp.  30 amps will get the PCB traces a bit hot, perhaps glowing hot.
I guess I should test one to destruction....

So is that like a 30A fuse you're shipping with it? Or do they actually make a 
5x20mm shorting link?
