I use the Samlex exclusively because I do a lot of island jumping and need something small and light. I've had mine on several islands, made tens of thousands of contacts with it in heat and odd voltages. Just keeps ticking.

Maybe I'll have to buy one of 'em.

I previously had two 1225 Samlex power supplies. Both died early, first one under warranty. HRO sent the unit in for repair (apparently in Canada), took over a month to get a replacement supply. That unit failed soon after the 90 day replacement warranty. I gave up with them after I couldn't find a tech support person who could help. Lots of K3'ers seem to use them successfully, however.
