    Can anyone recommend a good mid-range bench power supply.

    Hi there, I have been reading all I can about power supplies and top balancing. When you said "Cells will absorb voltage quite quickly past 3.500V so you MUST eagle eye on the cells," shouldn't the PS not allow the voltage to go past the set point?
