Well worth mentioning that you have found a reputable vendor. I may give
them a try.
A while back, I bought a dozen 18650 inexpensive(<$5 each) cells from 3
vendors picked at semi-random on eBay (4 from each) for evaluation and I
tested each one of them with a data logger.
The best one had about h
Yes, I noticed that before.

opened at the same time.
Don't assume that because it looks like a normal folder, it works like one,

One issue with power factor corrected power supplies is that in the short
term (as a minimum, at the line frequency), they do behave like resistors
(current goes up when voltage goes up) but as they have a slow voltage
regulation loop to provide regulated output, they do behave like constant
power
The good news is that for oven control, you can typically filter the heck
out of the data and the noise may actually help you with dithering if it's
fairly random, so you should be able to get close to the specs. The main
thing you need is stability, linearity should not be a factor. One

I have been forced to use micro-D by a customer on a military power supply,
not even space rated, it was well over $100 each in 50 piece quantity (I
think it was a 25 pin).
However, unless they are mistreated (which is easy for the reason you
listed), they seem reliable. I do not believe we have r
That is very good information. I will add your email to the 5370 page on my
