Bought this kit a while ago when it was on special @ $100.
Finally completed assembly and it works except for one annoying problem that I discovered during stress testing.
When the output is short circuit, the current limiter works as it should but only to about 2A. Above that and the blinkety-blink of the ceiling fluro plays havoc with the positive rail regulator section. I wouldn't have discovered this problem had the fluro tube not started dying (blinkety-blinkety-blinkety-blink)
When the current limit is set above about 2.2A and the fluro starts blinking, the positive regulator stops current limiting and fully saturates, dumping over 5A into the short before I flick the load switch off. When the fluro is turned off the limiter behaves normal.
The negative regulator behaves normally all the way to 3A and is unaffected by the blinking.
Anyone have any idea what is going on?!
