  • Question about the power lead I need for Hobbyking power supply

    I'm looking at the Hobbyking 350w 20a power supply to power a 250w reaktor charger, but I'm a bit confused about the power lead I need to buy.

    Will any cheap clover-leaf plug from ebay work or do I need to consider the fuse rating on the plug? Most of them seem to have 3a or 5a fuse ratings, just wondering if this will affect it for charging purposes? Would I need a 25a fused plug?

    It's only about 1.5A... a 5A fuse is plenty.

      Gixer is correct as your maximum is 350watts:
      Power (watts) = Volts x Amps or Amps = Power/Volts so Amps = 350/240 = 1.5.
