DIY lab food

Introduction

I built this because I needed a lab power supply and all the lab power supplies I could find were too expensive. This is built with 4 necessary components and the rest is optional.

Supplies.

• SK-60 or SK-120 buck boost converter
• 60 watt usb-c pd power supply
• 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.
