Rexus PST-3 Digital Power Supply Tester with LCD

Comment:
Operates well easy read out and relatively low cost instructions for how to test a 20 pin psu

Comment:
Wonderful blue show. decimal locations on the voltage ratings. easy hookups. light. none Appears excellent all about, great get for the money.

I bought this to test a few old PSU's I had lying around the house as properly as a few new ones I got for some system builds I am at present working on. This products does what is says it does. Like other individuals have talked about the instructions are minimal but if you use your prevalent sense you will be just fine. Also remember this will only show you if the PSU is placing out the appropriate voltages. Just mainly because you are finding voltage readings on PSU does not me there isn't nevertheless a difficulty. Often occasions PSU challenges are intermittent. So I recommend monitoring the voltages for a few minutes. to check for consistency. n/a The connections are fairly tight on my unit. Which is genuinely not a con but from time to time connecting and disconnecting the connectors is a tiny challenging.

I was somewhat skeptical about acquiring this simply because of some of the negative reviews, but I bought it anyway and I am glad that I did. The directions could be poor, but widespread sense should take over at that point. The show is uncomplicated to study and the ports are labeled nicely adequate that a monkey can inform exactly where to insert the appropriate plugs. I tested 4 energy supplies that I had laying about and was ready to throw them out, but the PS tester saved a single from impending doom and from meeting my .40 cal. For anybody that realize how a PS functions and what device draws what voltage....you will be glad you got one particular. For these that tried saying that this point sucks, you are possibly the same people that give unfavorable reviews to Newegg and its vendors mainly because YOU order incorrect parts or mainly because YOU have minimal recognize of how points operate. Numerous had gripes about the SATA plug-in, but I guess it is the luck of the draw. Mine worked out completely. Also, I will reiterate what some other folks have said in these critiques. Get the cheapest one with an LCD screen since they are all the exact same. My buddy had bought a ฽ dollar tester and mine gave the similar outcomes his did, except for the pained expression his gave him when I told him mine was a ton more affordable with shipping. Recall least expensive and LCD show!!! Good for DIYers!!!

Nifty unit to have to test things out. Not obtaining the SATA connector concerns like some are mentioning. N/A This unit is a mass production item that gets rebranded. This was the less costly priced of the units, but the very same item.

This is a quick and uncomplicated way to test the PSU output voltages. Uncomplicated to use, straightforward to read. I have utilized it on quite a few energy supplies more than the last 2.5 years, as I run a modest shop and will need to test them.Reliable, easy to use. Just plug in and go. Newegg has like 3 or four various "makes" of the exact similar unit. I went for cost point. Does not LOAD test the PSU. It is basically a simplified volt meter. This will NOT recognize a negative PSU that is incapable of offering a typical present load. It will verify that the PSU operates and puts out the correct voltages, that's it. On the other hand if this device fails your PSU, then it IS negative and demands replaced.Essentially, typical computer systems draw lots of power, anywhere from 150-500W. This tester does NOT test for a simulated load. Some PSU's can fail below load, but not fail the voltage test. I have yet to uncover a tester that can load test, NewEgg does not have one. When utilizing this tool, leaving it plugged in for say 10 minutes is NOT going to hurt it. Just don't leave it plugged in for extended periods. What I will do is leave it plugged in for a bit, and watch the voltages for adjustments. ALL of your voltages really should remain continuous and steady. If they fluctuate a tiny bit, fine but if they fluctuate a lot that indicates circuit troubles and the PSU ought to be replaced, even if the device doesn't beep or indicate a failure.But if you want to be in a position to adequately test your PSU's, you will require a load simulating PSU tester. After I can find a single.

Almost everything I required None truly

Good tester. Does it's job. Simple to read. None so far. I don't comprehend why some persons are complaining about the directions or this device being challenging to use. If you don't get it you most likely shouldn't be touching a power supply anyway (not trying to be mean or make myself sound like a know it all, but this tester simply isn't that difficult to use)Newegg = The Awesome

Comment:
Works as advertised. High quality built. none

Plugged in and worked ideal away. The LCD is vivid, has connectors for something connector the power supply has. Shows the output for every connector. Not genuinely a con, but it comes with a warning not to use for extended periods of time. Anything about overheating. Ran it for 15 minutes on the energy Provide and had no troubles.

Properly diagnosed a dead OCZ GameXsrtream 600W Ƒ.5 yrs old). Verified PSU tester works by testing a spare Antec I had laying about that I knew was in best functioning order. Passed with flying colors. Glad to see connections for sata/molex/floppy, as properly as 20ቴ pin and 4Ǟ pin energy. As a budding builder I'll be working with this more frequently. Like other folks, guidelines had been not good. Thanks to other reviewers for clearing up the confusion. Basically you plug in your PSU's 20ቴ pin energy and 4Ǟ pin power (like a mobo), then you can test something else a single connector at a time. Affordable and valuable. An crucial tool for builders.

It is incredibly simple to use. A ought to for any individual who works on computer systems day-to-day. I would not purchase this for a one particular time use. I test all the computer systems that come by way of my doors and it has permitted me to show clients that a new power provide is a good idea. It helps with sales.

Small, hard aluminum physique, tight connections, relatively logical layout. As other people have stated, I think that this solution may be employed. It has a number of scratches on the screen. None that impede the viewability of the screen, but it is scratched, nonetheless.Also, the LCD Screen only lights when you plug in an ATX energy adapter- you only get the იV, Ʊ.3V, and ƳV with IDE, SATA, etc. adapters. Even though it's a excellent product, and is fairly helpful, I'm not too certain if I trust Rexus after holding their item in my hand. It came shipped in a pretty bland box, with no organization names on the unit itself, the box it came in, or the manual. It does have a aspect number and serial quantity on the back of the unit, but it's challenging to reference these if you don't know who to contact to get it fixed!

It's inexpensive adequate, hassle-free for older rigs that all of a sudden stop working and you want to rule out or confirm the possibility of the difficulty being the power provide. The directions seem like they were originally perhaps chinese or japanese, wherever it was developed, and entered into google translator word for word before getting printed and sent to the U.S. I am not exactly certain how to use it. I can uncover my way around a pc, I constructed my present rig. Nonetheless, when attempting to test the power supply the lights indicated that it was ok. When I attempted beginning up my personal computer, even though, it told me I had a power supply challenge. If the directions were clearer possibly I would've been able to inform. Not the best product for these unsure of how to test a power provide.

Good layout, clear LCD readouts, logical style with a tight, good quality case. იV rail registerd undesirable on every single energy provide I tested, a couple brand new and several in working imaging server computer systems at perform. See Thoughts below... This is the second negative tester from two unique businesses I have RMA'd. The very first 1 from Coolmax did the identical factor. I suspect that the "guts" only of these testers are coming from the identical element manufacturer and various firms are paying for them to insert in their own situations only. I have had somebody in these critique forums mentiont that this is "normal" and I ought to "read the directions". Nicely, I know that the 12V line is of significant importance in a PS, and when a tester registers it LL (Low Level below voltage) and provides a warning beep, and when it does it to various PS's that are operating perfectly in a organization environment five days per week in a personal computer lab, that undoubtedly is a bad thing. Yes, myself and several lab techs know how to read directions and adequately plug in a tester.

Great style, functionality, ease of use. Digital display of voltage readings. Fried soon after 1st day. Gave off an aroma of burning silicon. Anyhow, I didn't use it until right now when I ultimately necessary it. It worked fine except one reading which was supposedly low. When I plugged in a single of the SATA connectors apparently it couldn't deal with it and began smoking. Absolutely nothing else was connected to the PSU so the damage was limited. If it worked as advertised it would be a wonderful little tester but however the engineering is substandard.

Comment:
More quickly than testing with a multimeter. Not necessarily undesirable, but it is just yet another cheaply produced, rebranded generic "whitebox" component. I located this on the net regarding the 12V2 challenge:If your power provide tester generates a continual beep and the 12V2 indicates "LL" this does not imply either your energy provide or the tester is defective. It basically signifies the 2nd 12 volt rail is not detected. This is a outcome of either testing a energy supply that does not have a 2nd 12 volt rail, or that you have not plugged in a connector carrying the 2nd 12 volt rail. PCI Express, 4-pin P4, and 8-pin motherboard connectors must all use the 2nd 12 volt rail, and when plugged into the tester, the "LL" indication and beeping noise need to cease.

It does exactly what it's supposed to. The manual is very lacking. There's a great amount of figuring out on your personal, luckily it's not terribly hard.

It looks good, light weight and most connectors you will ever need. Very first time I plugged this device in, it was in the very same wire line of the HD in a consumers Computer. Following the directions I plugged the device in, then powered up the system. The LED lights came on, but the LCD in no way did. Inside 20 seconds the HD started glowing bright red and electrical smoke followed. That is the worst smell ever! At the 30 second mark I unplugged the power cord from the back of the machine and was capable to blow out the little flame coming from the difficult drive. The wife wasn't also impressed with the green smoke flowing out of the office or via the cold air return and central air vents. Rather disappointed I believed this factor would be a wonderful tool for testing voltages.Wonder if the manufacturer will cover the expense of the HD...

Comment:
Functions great if you read the directions, and if can't stick to them than numerous individuals have posted the proper way of using the device under the Newegg reviews. Broken English for directions. If individuals would read step ş in the little manual that is provided with the unit it states "Plug-in your ATX 24pin and plug-in (P4/P6/P8) into the tester before turning the power on." If you don't do that each and every PS you test will give the იV2 error of LL. So don't give the unit undesirable evaluations since you can't/choose not to read.

Comment:
Affordable, powerful and does what it is supposed to. none

Comment:
effortless to read output, apparently trustworthy, has diagnosed 1 bad PSU for me so far .... directions are tragic, 1 egg off for that my 1st PSU tester, I enjoy it, a great way to quantify what is or isn't incorrect w/ your PSU

Comment:
told me that a psu was superior and i had to get a new mb had to google the manual

Comment:
Utilised this on a number of computers now and it hasn't failed me when. It has a fantastic LCD screen with uncomplicated to read numbers. Just the fact that it shows the exact voltage it's going is great for the price. None that I know of!

Applied this tester to prove what was thought to be a undesirable connection, on a two year old 650W power supply. Plugged it suitable in and identified which connection was undesirable. None
