When Jalan and I first met, we set out as Friends (really, Acquaintances) With Kinky Benefits, neither of us looking for an LTR, much less a marriage.

We also switched a lot. She was/is too sadistic for me to accommodate (meaning she couldn't go hard enough to be satisfying without an actual masochist on the other end), but there were and are other things, and I enjoyed topping in sexual bondage.

After some time of this, and the friendship being established, we stumbled* into talking about trying relational D/s together.

15 years ago today was what we refer to as "flipping the switch."

We'd gone to a small golf resort for the weekend. She tied me down, blindfolded and gagged me, then scrawled "MINE" across my chest in bright red lipstick (for me to learn later, obviously).

*Seriously, stumbled into it. I misinterpreted something she'd said as opening the topic of D/s, responded as if she had, then she realized it might be a good idea to follow up on.

I bought a #Hangell (no, I wasn't familiar with that name) switching bench power supply and it arrived. It happens to be one that #BigClive just briefly showed in one of his unbagging videos.

I got it because my existing old #linear supplies max out at around 18 V, and that has been a hindrance of late. A #switching supply isn't ideal, because of the possibility of noise, but this model will do 5 A at 60 VDC, and a linear supply that can do a couple of amps at that voltage is big, heavy, and pricey.

So of course, as soon as I received it, I took it apart. As you do.

And ... I'm pleasantly surprised. The #PCB layouts look good, the assembly appears very good, with proper pick&placed #SMT components and reflow soldering, not hack-job hand soldering. The components seem to be #quality, even name-brand where appropriate. There are what appear to be genuine class X and class Y #safety capacitors everywhere they should be. The front binding posts are fairly typical cheap #Chinesium ones, but appear to be from the better end of the quality spectrum as far as those go.

One ding: the multiple #electrolytic output caps appear to be 63 V-rated ones. For a supply that goes up to 60 V, that's just not acceptable. Maybe that's because this unit can also be had in a 30 V model? Or maybe they're just hoping you don't notice.

I'm sorely tempted to replace them with 100 V-rated ones before I use it. I'm going to add some more output #filtering as well.
