Hi.
What are the differences between the power boxes?
The price ranges there vary quite a bit.
Actually, they all essentially do the same thing, right?
Why does the same product cost €698 at Kw Systems and only €449 at Speedbuster, for example?
Und bei Ebay bietet jemand sogar für 99.- an. Without a valid technical inspection (TÜV).
Best regards,

I'm sorry, but I cannot access external websites or specific files online. Therefore, I am unable to translate the text from the provided URL.

'Modern' power supplies often include their own microprocessors and modified software, among other things. Their design and functionality are somewhat more compact and comprehensive than in the past, which can also lead to a higher price. This is often unjustified, but it's usually not apparent beforehand.

And in these cases, I would generally avoid buying from eBay listings.

Most **** boxes only contain one or several passive components, and the price of €50 or more is anything but justified. Just look at PD temperature sensor boxes with fixed resistors, or CR boxes with voltage dividers icon_twisted.gif.
