Default Re: Temporary load for power supply testing

One bit of advice I'd give if you're using lamps as a load is it's a good idea to have them switched so you can bring them on one or two at a time because the inrush current might make the PSU shut down because the cold current is many times greater than the hot current. Just an extra precaution worth taking especially with some picky SMPSUs.
