Electronic surplus store? Looking for a power supply

[BB69]

I'm looking for an adjustable DC power supply. I need something that will do 5v-12v minimum and 5 amps. Are there any surplus type stores in the Metro area that would something like this?

Thanks
Ken

Not that I know of. Most of the local places I'd suggest closed shop years ago. Radio Shack will likely only carry 13.8V DC fixed. What you want can be found online - MCM Electronics, Parts Express, etc... but it's not going to be cheap with a min of 5A. Guessing north of $80.

I might have a one of these. PM on Monday and I will check.

You could try RS Electronics in Livonia, they have all sorts of good stuff there.

I have one of these. If you have a dc power supply from a old device you don't use anymore in think it might work.

Most I've seen are 9-15 or 25. Efuel has one that is 9-15 with a 5v USB.
Mine is 1200watts 11-25v

Try calling Electronics Connection in Westland.
