hey SUN, how are those power supplies.... my original idea was to build the rotary diode and step back my 15v laptop supplied, but I'm not electronics expert and thought it might be a bit much, so I bought 2 of those supplies (one for each lane, even though they claim to be regulated) and figured I'd put quick connect ends on them (use the standard Artin power connectors to modified Artin power tracks, one controller, one lane connector each, like I did with the wall warts) and put the same ends on the 15v power supplies..... if I wand anything up to and including 12v, I use the CS supplies, 15, I use the laptop supplies.... would take 10 seconds to switch. they just arrived this week, and after a year of wall warts you would figure I would have ripped them open immediately, but no time.... they working out alright for you? I figured for $40, I could not beat them.

I really like it. The adjustability's nice, and it's got enough current to move anything I currently own. Plus it has a self-resetting circuit breaker. It gives a little buzz when it trips, and takes about 15 seconds to reset. Great feature. Honestly, I need to put some power taps into my track, to make the power more consistant, but that's not a problem with the PS. For $20, you really can't go wrong.
