and a list of known junk power supplies

Re: and a list of known junk power supplies

That's no doubt made by Leadman (same as Powmax and Diablotek) but that must be either one of the units from one of their cases or something really, really old. Because if you go to MGE's website and look at power supplies you don't see anything even remotely like that. And if I go to ASI's website and pull up all of their MGE's, the ones I can buy are either Wintech or Seventeam models.

Okay... Apparently MGE is whoever. Because I just got a couple lowend aluminum models here that have a UL number from Skyhawk on them.

TTGI/Superflower has never been Topower to my knowledge... I saw a Dan's Data review claiming the connection once between Enermax, Topower, and CWT; but there's just too much evidence against it for me to accept that as fact.

The companies I know to be using Topower for sure are Globalwin, BeQuiet, Epower/Tagan, Vantec, A+GBP, Athena, OCZ, Scythe, and 2themax.

Actually... Before there was e-Power/Tagan, Vantec, A+GBP, Athena, OCZ, Scythe and 2themax, Topower did in fact make TTGI/Superflower.

So much so, the power supplies actually said TTGI TOPOWER right on them. And they were sold through case manufacturer Superflower. Hence TTGI/Superflower.

I don't know when this changed. But it was true as late as 2002.

And back in 2000, 2001, etc. when we were selling TTGI Topower power supplies, you could see an undeniable similarity to Enermax, right down to the fan and fan grill.

But times change. Superflower now builds their own and Enermax doesn't even look CLOSE to anything Topower makes. But it is interesting that Enermax branding is deep inside their units. Right down to the IC's on the PCB's that have "Enermax" silk-screened on the top.
