Anybody has any idea what happened to the LPS shipping? DId they freeze it or anything?

According to their shipping updates, all of the Geek LPS units from the first batch are shipped and the second batch is about 45% completed.

What about the plug situation for international shipping? Cause I remember they changed to all standard US plugs because of the port situation.

Since I´m an international backer too I asked about this (in my case Source and ViDac) in conjunction with the survey.
Answer from the Customer happiness team was that only US plugs will be provided. Guess this is also valid for all other devices including the LPS/4.

It looks like the Pulse Xfi is currently shipping with a switching power supply that works with 100-240 V.

I have no idea what kind of power cable currently ships with the LPS for non-USA units though.

I just watched this today and thought it might be interesting to some of you who might want to know a little more about what goes on in a linear power supply. The video isn't focused on LPS designs per se, but rather why multiple parallel capacitors are often seen in electronic circuits, including LPSs.

And for those who don't know what a full-bridge rectifier is, or why capacitors are needed in a LPS:

I would say no, unfortunately because of:
Power Supply: 19 volt DC

The Geek LPS only supplies 12 VDC from its outputs.

Does anyone know what the amperage and type, fast or slow blow, the fuse is for the LPS4?  I know it's 250V rated.

 

[kostaszag]

Does anyone know what the amperage is for the 5V output? I cant find any precise specs on that one...

The USB Type A 5V is rated at 0.5A.

Yes I know this is an old thread but thought it might still be helpful to someone out there in Head-Fi land. I have the LPS and the LPS4. The LPS shipped with an Aussie power plug. The LPS4 I imported from the US of A, and as you would expect it came with a US of A plug.

Does anyone still want to know the answer to this question. If so I can have a look at the fuse in my LPS4?

Any idea if I can power the Burson Fun amp with my lps4?

[Juffa]

No unfortunately not. The fun requires 12v at 6 amp input. Both power supplies can only provide 1.2 amp at the most.
