Just adjust the voltage to 14.5 to 14.8 no load, usually via an internal adjustment, and be done with it.

Hi Ken
Thanks for the info.
I am  not in a rush yet.   I noticed that the voltage is 13.4.. Maybe a
little higher might be better.  Not sure on the last point.
I will check what else they make

Richard,

I use an IOTA DLS-55 SMPS power supply (
https://www.iotaengineering.com/dls55.htm).  It provides 55 amps, doesn’t
produce RFI, is audibly quiet, and rugged.  The dimensions are 9.7" x 6.7"
x 3.4" and the weight is 5.0 lbs.  Mine is on 24/7/365.  IOTA also makes
them in other output voltages and currents.

I need  to get a new power supply for my upcoming K4 and accessories
before
my present 40 year old supply goes belly up.
I want reliability and no fussing , fixing or modifying  things. Any
recommendations.
I heard that some of the old brands are not what they used to be.
Thanks,
