Ok, I have found the same charger or similar from there sellers even $20 less, how ever this seems to be one of the few companies giving them a ONE YEAR warranty.

That warranty alone has be really interested, just curious if anyone else has seen these or even bought one, looks to be a pretty good deal considering my locally bought PS was $99 and only 14V 20A.

Oh wait, I forgot here is one $15 less same warranty!

Thats a bit on the expensive end if you ask me.

Also, generally any warranty is meaningless, unless its from a reputable seller. They MAY offer a replacement unit to you, should this one fail. However, it is EXTREMELY likely they would want you to ship your unit back to Hong Kong first, for inspection. The issue there, is it happens to cost $50-100 to send something like this to HK from the US. Assume the warranty is meaningless, it generally is.

Something like this would be a better bet.

This unit even has PFC, but it says 'used'...

These are both coming from the US. Theres nothing wrong with the stuff from China/HK, but you really need to know what you're buying. These happen to be cheaper AND in the US, which is probably faster. The top unit is probably fairly good quality, but used. I would throw a offer in on it.
 
Thanks for the pointers, didn't think about the shipping back costs!

I will look for one in the USA thanks! :)
