The customer service is great and fast. Swap out is painless and shipping is quick.

I have to say they did send out parts fast and I understand their side to a point. They said I overloaded the unit but I was only running a 2 pill with it so I dont know what happened. Different model and different use so ill give em another try.

Little bitty power connectors on the Megawatts. Don't see how I would put a six gauge lug onto the little screw downs to run a four pill amp.

Interested in the Powermax because they look like they have a proper connection for say a four pill amp. A friend of mine has the 100 amp model, but says on some radios the Powermax causes noise. He did say he was not using the grounding lug on back of the Powermax.

Yeah it's 125.00 no matter what 15.00 shipping now have to see how I'm going to hook up 8 gauge wire to those terminals.

You are running a 4 pill with 50A?

 

[snippits75]

No not running a four pill with 50 amps. Two Megawatts together would run it, but still have the dinky screw terminals.

I agree, the terminals are shit for what these supplys are sold for.

There are multiple screws. I think in one of their videos, they put 12awg wires under each screw and then spliced them together. I have two pm3-100 supplies, nice big terminals.

Do the PowerMax pm3-100 supplies create any hash on the radios? Been thinking about getting one.

Thanks

There's an old post that said no hash on the PM3-100. Someone said they called and the mfg suggested the PM4 version to the HAM guy. So I dunno.

Ok thanks for that info!

I only know because I've been considering them for like a year. Thinking the 75 or 100 amp model myself.

I can’t determine the difference between the pm3 & pm4 versions.

75 amp or 100 amp? Don’t know. I would use it on a four transistor amplifier with my AT-6666. I’ve got a Megawatt S-700-12 50 amp power supply but don’t want to risk zapping it.

The AT is powered by a Megawatt S-400-12.
