Thanks for the complements, its 2x hp dps600s i wired both of them into one IEC panel outlet. Plug in and they both go on standby with leds on the toggle switches to confirm. Turn on right side toggle switch gives me 12volt and the led goes off and volt meter comes on. I have the second power power supply on standby to keep it cool when on 12 volt incase voltage is going through it being wired in series. The right side is the same turn on and that gives 24volt so thats why i chose 75amp power pole connectors, there is storage in the front bit for cables. I have pictures of the build if anybody is interested i just need a pl8 now any questions no problem i will be glad to help.

portable power supplys
The case i used was a bit big but wanted room for storage as well. I got it from ebay and cleaned it with lighter fluid and it came up like new. I already had the ply wood its 18mm thick and just cut out to size for the bottom that was for the power supplys to be attatched with L brackets and then secured with M3 dual lock velcro to the bottom of the case

The idea was for the charger to sit on top of the perspex in the middle near the back. Storage were the velvet is i would put the AC cable and charging leads. I'm not sure of what chance if any of the power supplys overheating when i charge at 30amp especially being in a case. I have put foam in the cable channel at the side of the power supplys to stop air recirculating. I have not slowed the fans using pin 4 i hope it will keep cool.

Watch my video of me and Matt charging 9 batteries at one time. I have done the mod to slow the fans down, and in that video, you will see that the PSU's will over ride the pin and kick the fans on high if it needs to. and even pulling a constant 30 amps out of this thing, it never kicked the fans on high for more than about 30 seconds. Mostly just pulsed them. So no issue with keeping them cool on low.
good build bud. up up and away LOL
