Very easy to use and intuitive in using it to copper electroform.

Comes with a 90-day warranty.
It's quiet, even when the fan is on. I'd say it's about the same or quieter than my laptop fan.
Its smaller size makes it easy to tuck away on your workbench without taking up all your crafting real estate.
Shipping is fast from the Amazon store.
The amperage readings for this power supply will be slightly different from other ones I've used and seen. For a single ring, I set my amps to .30 when using the TekPower 3-amp. But for the 5-amp power supply I own from a different company, I have to set it to .03 for the same type of ring.
Can be quite a learning curve when trying to troubleshoot issues.
Loud startup sound. It scared me the first time I turned it on but I assure you it's totally harmless.
The TekPower 3Amp-18Volt Power Supply is going to be more geared towards the person who just wants to make jewelry as a hobby and perhaps begin selling their jewelry at some point. This is not for the person who has capital to start a jewelry business and is looking to have a production setup making hundreds of jewelry pieces.
As of August 9, , the price is $54.99 + free shipping. The price point of this power supply makes it an affordable option to those who just want to make jewelry as a hobby and/or start an Etsy shop selling their jewelry as a beginner.
There are certainly higher quality power supplies with more amperage output, but with that comes a higher price. I plan on going over some other options for those looking to upgrade from this one, rev up their jewelry production, or make bigger, sculptural pieces.
Some people have had issues with this power supply not working as well as it had in the past, or it just completely stopped working. Before going straight to 'well, this power supply is broken', keep in mind that your copper electroforming solution needs to have enough conductivity for the power supply to do its job.
Remember, that there are a lot of working parts when electroforming. A lot needs to be damn near perfect in order for this machine to use DC electricity to remove copper from your anode and deposit that copper onto the piece you're electroforming.
Also, I've found that the shorter your leads are the better, sorta like using a 50ft extension cord rather than a 5ft cord, the power has a longer travel time which weakens the power supply by the time it gets to the item you're trying to supply power to.

You're going to have to learn a little bit about this process; the power supply, electricity, conductivity, and copper electroforming solution. But I promise it's not as difficult as it may sound and it's my goal to help you in any way I can.
In the process of electroplating production, the correct choice of a power supply product that suits you is the basis for improving work efficiency. The following are the requirements for selecting electroplating power sources organized by the editor.
First, it must meet the specifications required by the electroplating process, including the power size of the power supply, the waveform index, and the adjustable range of current and voltage values.
The second is the reliable performance of the power supply itself, which mainly refers to the rationality of the structure, safety, circuit characteristics, and cooling methods.
Third, consider the cost-effectiveness of its price.
Determining how big and what kind of power supply a plating species and all plating tanks should be configured is the most important task for the implementation of electroplating production. In actual production, there are two methods to determine the electroplating power supply: one is the volume current density method that is determined according to the volume of the plating solution; the other is the current density method per unit area that is calculated according to the plating area.
The so-called volume current density is to adjust the current intensity of the entire plating tank according to the maximum current allowed by the plating solution per liter, so as to determine the maximum and conventional output power of the power supply to be used. Copper plating is generally 0.2'0.3A/L, nickel plating is 0.1'2.5A/L, bright nickel plating is 0.3'0.35A/L, acid zinc plating is 0.5'0.6A/L, alkaline zinc plating can reach 1.2 A/L, chrome plating is 2'3A/L. Taking bright nickel plating as an example, the maximum process current of a 600L plating solution can reach 0.3A/L×600L=180A, so a 200A power supply can be used.
The maximum current can also be calculated according to the plating area. Taking chromium plating as an example, if it is a 600L plating solution, at 60', the maximum allowable current density is 100A/dm2, and the plating tank can be plated with 10dm2 when the plating tank is fully loaded, then the maximum output current of the power supply required is 100A/dm2×10dm2 =A, that is, to configure a A, 18V rectifier power supply.
After determining the power size of the power supply. According to the needs of the electroplating process and the conditions of the electroplating site, the waveform, cooling method, size, and corrosion resistance of the electroplating power supply should be selected, including the cost factor to balance.
