# DIY variable power supply
|
|
|
|
## Introduction
|
|
I built this because I needed a lab power supply and all the lab power supplies I could find online were too expensive. This is built with 4 necessary components and the rest is optional.
|
|
|
|
## Supplies.
|
|
- SK-60 or SK-120 buck boost converter (The SK-120 may not fit as I made it for the SK-60)
|
|
- 60 watt usb-c pd power supply (or 120 watt depending on which buck boost converter you have)
|
|
- 4mm banana female plugs
|
|
- Wires
|
|
|
|
## Optional supplies
|
|
- XT-60 connector
|
|
- Any other connector you want to put on it
|
|
|
|
## Equipment
|
|
- soldering iron
|
|
- 3d printer
|
|
- glue gun
|
|
|
|
## Build
|
|
If you have everything it is very simple. Everything is marked on the Buck boost converter (SK-60 or SK-120) where the power goes in and where it comes out.
|
|
|
|
The USB-C PD module is hot glued in. It has held up for 5 months so far inside while being swung around in my backpack. When hot glueing the module in I inserted a usb-c cable inside of it so it would be aligned well.

|
## Tips
|
|
- If you use this design make a cover at the top because otherwise assembly is very difficult.
|
|
- If you use an XT-60 connector make sure that the side with the corner is the ground.
