Second, it's basic engineering to use DC power supplies that provide more juice than the application will require. Helps keep voltage steady and current clean. (Not to mention less wear and tear on the power supply.) Source: My job. |
Not only that but over time a Powersupply's unit's efficiency and maximum wattage output will literally decrease with age due to capacitor aging, hence why they have to over-engineer powersupply units in a fixed device such as this.
