Hello BBI FANS AND FRIENDS: MR. Luke this is the second time I've seen this video now on my big screen TV. This to me is nothing but pure artwork. The way you have applied your genius to modify each module is outstanding. WAY TO GO BBI & HAPPY EASTER TO ALL !!!!! TMP, UNIT 22 FROM N.J.
BBI, you see the magnetic force between the conductors. The higher the current the more it moves away from thr other conductor. This is the same effect when current flow through a conductor from a lightning strike. Very cool project. Thank you.
I'm really enjoying these videos while also following along in my own way. I have found enough power cables around the house to chop up. I don't have a need now but I love the idea of just having a massive power supply that I will never stress about. Overbuild underrun.
Referencing your white wire: Server PSU's and the server PSU backplane have options to run supplies in redundancy mode or ballanced mode. When the server admin selects redundancy mode, only PSU is triggered on while other sits powered but no output (green light). When ballanced mode selected, all supplies triggered and self regulate. Your "Master" supply is slighty higher voltage and as the others are slightly lowere and have no output, sleep time.
This was a great video to watch if only I knew what my future holds after being burned on the property I bought here. Because if I say muck it and go off the grid I'll have no idea for such a great power supply. But if things work out the right way a 300 to 500 Watt supply I would pay the price for. These supplies are great and I thank you for showing all of the potential and benefits of using these.
Looks like my tools. Xuron cutters, Klein screwdrivers, Fluke meters, Panavise vise. I used buss bars out of a breaker box for the breakout connections.
I have been through maybe 50 of these rack server supplies. 99% of the time they are still in great shape. but I have come across a few that provided amperage but was producing a crap ton of noise so just take a few mins and make sure each supply is not doing this.
Okay let me get this said right off the bat ..I'm not a builder I'm just a guy that's messes around at home really mic wiring gives me trouble..but thank you for sharing your knowledge and a good deal on some supplies I just wanted one but a ebay mess up I ended up with 2 I'm okay with thank bit for 40nucks i will have a nice switcher to run a small amplifier that I want to try to put together for HF with all the filtering I need and also a 11metter box . Thank you sir ..
I built a 24v supply using the little 460w hp supplies last year. Runs my isdt chargers like a champ and way higher quality than the mystery meat Chinese-ium LED switchers. A bit more work, but worth it.
Is the vacume base on your vice working out well? I am trying to decide between the weighted vs. the vacume base for my Panavice... Thanks again for taking the time to create your content... 73
I owned a Ranger RCI 6300F Turbo around 20 years ago. I was told it was built by someone in Florida, and it was heavily modified. Would dead key on High 750 watts and swing over 2 thousand watts. The receiver and modulation were all re-done. I used it as a base radio in Iowa. I didn't have the courage to look inside the radio, but it was a beautiful sounding radio. It later got stolen by a local where I live, damn do I miss it and talking on the radio. Any ideas who in Florida could have built such a radio? 73s to you and yours, and have a great Easter weekend .. KGE7432 S.W.I.A
I like your work one question if you hook up a antenna to it can you hear it cut on and off make sure there ain't no noise coming through the power source that's one of the things I would worry about
I almost wished you had used a solid 3/4" square copper bars for buss termination on top of switchers with wire gauge appropriate holes drilled ,wire inserted then filled with solder.Concerned about amperage through wires laid on top soldered and any possible voltage drop from this method and heat buildup.
I've got 2 of these modded running 14.4v and in parallel and I'm observing the following with and without the load sharing wire hooked up: When I power up both units the green indicator lights both come on and then one unit's light goes off after a few seconds. It does seem like both are running and sharing the load because I'm getting a lot more out of my amp vs running a single PSU. They are also both getting warm under load. Is this normal? Also, as a test, I unplugged the lit unit to see if the other's light would come on. No light came on on the second, voltage remained, and the unplugged unit's fan went to full speed. It appears that the supply in this video has all of it's lights on all the time but it's hard to tell. Any info would be much appreciated.
Hi, after watching the fix pallet video, BBI mentioned a positive note to D & R built pallets. I haven't been able to locate those. Any links to those D & R pallets? Thanks BBI for pointing out the utterly horrific splatter by the other pallet builder across a very wide spectrum.
Wonderful, I love your build! 👏👏👏 How well is the load sharing holding up with heavy loads at prolonged usage? The most I have done is a 36V, 65A, series design - using the HP 750W supplies. Again, wonderful work. Thanks for making the video! 👍😎 - The Innovati0n Lab.
When you get it figured out, I'd love to see a polished up design where the modules can be inserted like the original servers used them. Where the end user can swap them out by hand without tools! (Granted we have to trust them not to be idiots and isolate teach module so we can rig them up in series. perhaps a float tester is in order for that task)
I think it would have been more impressive if it was done with an amplifier drawing the amps from the supply hit it with something that's going to take a 800 or 900 amps on a key up to see if it is going to Crowbar.
@BoxBuilderIdaho how do you power these on 220/240V? 100A at 240V says 6.6A so 2 of them at 100A 13.2A? No? In UK we are 240V 13A max, i see from your video you have them all attached to one ac line, more than 1 of these would be too much for uk plug sockets or am i missing something Thanks
Great work! Did you go with the 12k & 39k for the PSU mod in the end or what was the sweet spot you tuned? Did you use 18k instead and did you mention that 1/4w is sufficient?
Ok question for ya. I have an old backup power supply. Are you saying I can use this to power a 70 watt radio? If so do I have to do anything to it so I can do this? Thanks brother
Just a question but can u cut the clips off and Hydraulically crimp and solder terminals on the wires on your amp test center and it would be a better electrical test and a real world test bc that's how most people are going to connect there amp or radio to the supply
Ouch I'd be getting myself a single-phase 220 Buck converter if I was you. Otherwise the Transformer that takes 3-phase and converted over to 220 volts your other options to find three phase power supplies which in my opinion would be probably the most efficient and cost-effective thing to do
..ooh, thats something indeed to listen..and to find out how to mod that supply have to look for video what not goo too fast to see what too do..jammer hoor
you were missing one meter in your wide shot.... The utility meter on your house! lol!

That is just too cool. It's an awesome build, BBI
Watching all the way from Manila, Philippines.
Thanks for sharing, have an awesome day ahead!

Subscribed! My new favorite thing to watch!
coffee and this been studying this for quite sometime the whole playlist and it really gives me the push to do this nice one.
Hey BBI love you man. Been using these for years. Thanks for f#cking the market up.
Ó melhor dê todos os tempos parabéns BBi felicidades sempre bazuka Foz do Iguaçu PR Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Bad ass... Mr BBI' for the win!
was a bit of a trip when the load knob rolled back by itself,,, really cool video thanks man
Couldn't these stack in a tall computer chassis?
You got me thinkin!
I got an old Cummins engine and the battery cables on it will jump like that. Very nice
No better feeling when you build something and it works better than you calculated!😊😊

Thanks so much and Big Kudos to you for being such a innovator!!! got my 1200 sb's orderd. Don't think I'll need 1/4 as many as you have there lol!!!
In a few years the current state of the art server PS-u will become available on the second hand market. Half the size, same W.
When I saw that cable jump like that, the only word that came to mind was WICKED. That sir is one WICKED WICKED supply!
This is awesome thank you BBI
This is just an absolute game changer!!
This power supply is an ABSOLUTE GAME CHANGER!! I need a price!
thank you for sharing your knowledge sir!
you didn't weigh the completed power supply for comparison to the alternative amperage power supplies.
Love this video but would really like to see how you modify these modules to output 14 volts
Okay let me get this said right off the bat ..I'm not a builder I'm just a guy that's messes around at home really mic wiring gives me trouble..but thank you for sharing your knowledge and a good deal on some supplies I just wanted one but a ebay mess up I ended up with 2 I'm okay with thank bit for 40nucks i will have a nice switcher to run a small amplifier that I want to try to put together for HF with all the filtering I need and also a 11metter box .

Dood that's petty freakin amazing... great video
I built a 24v supply using the little 460w hp supplies last year. Runs my isdt chargers like a champ and way higher quality than the mystery meat Chinese-ium LED switchers. A bit more work, but worth it.
I will pass on the Astron and get a power supply made with HPs. The testing and build do it for me.
BBi this is sick stack idea 💡 Nice Build !
Hi Luke, did you check for rf interference with your 7300 or Stryker? Would be interested to know the S Meter reading with 1000A draw..
The Doctor is in... The KING is on the Throne.
How many volts of mains input were these experiments made with?
Was it made with 240v?
I need one of those Mr.BBI
Is the vacume base on your vice working out well?

I'm sorry I'm not trying to criticize I'm just curious
I'd like to have seen the individual supply's LEDs turn on as the amp load was added....will they turn on in sequence or randomly? Lol
44:41 time mark
What do I need to modify inside to chain them together
And what do I need to minimize ripples to output?

Is the white balance wire connected to the terminal adjacent to the red wire on the supplies?
Hi . What do you use 1000 amps of current for ?
Watched sharkey flow chart does translate easy to understand! 😊 where can I get access to purchase modules?😮 been to big rig Danny's
Just curious if I could pull the 48 volt module from my server n use these in it it houlds4 modules. N it has a controller.
Also bbi if you can test this on a pill box that would be a great video
Excelente
Awesome

👍😎
- The Innovati0n Lab.
out of all the things you do the peel on the carbon pile probably made the most people tingle in their giblets.
Do have a schematic of the build. I have 4 750w and 4 450 psu's.
That's a reasonable price considering the builder and it capabilities
Now you can arc weld and operate a ham radio at the same time
heh I'd love to see you convert that amp meter to LOG SCALE! 0 to 10,000 AMPS!
Is the load sharing on pin 3? I must have missed that part?
✌👍
Sweet
Braveheart
I was thinking the same thing last night put 4 of em in a 4 or 6 transistor box.

@@robertanderson5631 I'm sure that will come later, as BBI said this is just the beginning.
Nerermind, maybe I should stay around 400 amp supply?
JUST INSANE !!!
Well done 👏 ✔ 👍
BRAVO!!!……….kg9ge…….Just what I was thinking 1/2 inch brass bolts
@BoxBuilderIdaho how do you power these on 220/240V? 100A at 240V says 6.6A so 2 of them at 100A 13.2A? No? In UK we are 240V 13A max, i see from your video you have them all attached to one ac line, more than 1 of these would be too much for uk plug sockets or am i missing something

Also what is the difference between the 1200sb and the 1200fb?
Was it made with 240v?
How many volts of mains input were these experiments made with?
I have a server supply that I pulled out but can’t figure out how to get it to work out of the unit or what to jump out to make it output DC.
MR.BBI I have a Cobra 25 with a 250 watt booster . ? do I need to set the SWR with the radio flat footed or with the booster on ? thank you sir.
How much for 400amp supply?Would that be 120 volt?
VERY NICE 👌
ID LOVE TO HAVE ONE BUILT IN THE 300AMP RANGE .
Great work! Did you go with the 12k & 39k for the PSU mod in the end or what was the sweet spot you tuned? Did you use 18k instead and did you mention that 1/4w is sufficient?
Damm your brave lol
Do you sell any amps? I'd be very interested in a 250a set if amps.
Ok question for ya. I have an old backup power supply. Are you saying I can use this to power a 70 watt radio? If so do I have to do anything to it so I can do this? Thanks brother
What if i have 1000 computer power cords and just cut the male end off and wire to the breaker?
100% good to go
We call that a roman candle, they are cool! Well, cool in your house, it would look like shit in mine, but it would be cool in your house.
Love it!
Very well done 👍
Hey Master Luke, What is the P/N for these Curling Breaker's you use and where do ya get them. Thank's 2WR/NB267 Colorado.
Are these 100 amp each at 14 vdc?
What do you plan to run with these 12v 1000 amp adapters?
64 pill
Just a question but can u cut the clips off and Hydraulically crimp and solder terminals on the wires on your amp test center and it would be a better electrical test and a real world test bc that's how most people are going to connect there amp or radio to the supply
In the future
What mods did you do to the PS when you took them apart?
There's three other videos. All the mods are thoroughly covered in those videos
BBi, how much for a power supply?
Mad Scientist
Could not finish the video.
I'd rather watch paint dry
@@mr_bartender73 thank you for the view.
well built
What in the world is the price on that??
How the heck do you power these supply's?
In the netherlands on 1 phase 16A
And max 25A
Then on 3 phase here 3 x 25A
Ouch I'd be getting myself a single-phase 220 Buck converter if I was you. Otherwise the Transformer that takes 3-phase and converted over to 220 volts your other options to find three phase power supplies which in my opinion would be probably the most efficient and cost-effective thing to do
@@BoxBuilderIdahoHow many volts of mains input were these experiments made with?
Was it made with 220v?
I was thinking you would to that. I remember the 300 amp one with 10 SMPS china inside with contactor. think maybe run a 48 pill ? 73's
Whats the power plug connector that you are using
..ooh, thats something indeed to listen..and to find out how to mod that supply have to look for video what not goo too fast to see what too do..jammer hoor
Does the low profile fan pull enough air
Rhetorical question, how much?
Can you put a link up for that oversized 2x4 case ?
What would you need that much power for ?
And how long will it last ?
You are running off batteries and they will destroy them drawing that much power
Welding.... no joke we build amplifiers that use that much DC current though..
Great video could not have come at a better time. I need a 30amp 50v power supply for my 23cm amp. what was the make of your ps?
I use HP ESP120's for my LDMOS builds. 57 amps at 51 volts, each.
