Big switching power supplies - what's the forum favorite?

I've an Astron RM-50M under my desk. It does the job year after year. No RF hash and no fan noise. I detest fan noise, especially if it is continuous. Some switchers are temperature activated while others run the fans continuously. Those that have a tiny fan may sound like they're ready for takeoff!

I've a Samlex installed in a TKR-750 repeater that I'm testing here. Its fan is temperature controlled and the power supply appears to generate very low RF noise, at least I don't notice it. This is another important consideration, especially on the lower HF and MF bands.

You might see if you can get a 100% refund guarantee if you're not completely satisfied with whatever you choose.
