That was the - [Mastech HY5003 Bench Power Supply 110V AC - Rewiring To 220V AC](https://magictale.com/1356/mastech-hy5003-bench-power-supply-110v-ac-rewiring-to-220v-ac/) - Mastech HY5003 Bench Power Supply is a good choice for a home lab. It is inexpensive, noiseless, not very space demanding, easy to use. Features include 50VDC@3A, 150W, constant voltage/constant current/restricted current modes, fine and coarse voltage and current adjustment. Just enough for most cases of amateur electronics designer activities. And if you are lucky - [Case for Pilot Display](https://magictale.com/1869/case-for-pilot-display/) - It is time to put our Pilot Display into a case. A box of appropriate size and shape has been found at Blacktown's Jaycar store. The dimensions were almost ideal with only one problem - a battery compartment that prevented PCBA from fitting inside. It tuned out not to be a problem for us, using - [Revisiting VFD PSU - Part I](https://magictale.com/2063/revisiting-vfd-psu-part-i/) - The need in inexpensive, simple and compact power supply unit (PSU) for VFD projects has always been topical for us. MVFD 16S8D Panel was designed to address the challenge, however, as it always the case for first revision, there are some things which require improvements or rethinking. And MVFD Panel was not an exception in - [Envisaging Case for Luminardo](https://magictale.com/1879/envisaging-case-for-luminardo/) - Recently we have been busy working on new stylish case for Luminardo project.
