I'm looking for a power supply to power my radios at home. I currently have
a Yaesu FTM-400 and a Yaesu FTDX-10. The FTM-400 draws a max of 12 amps and
the FTDX-10 draws 21 amps max. I do not see ever transmitting on both at the
same time, with that I feel a 25amp power supply should be
I use the Astron RS-50 A. Run 2 icom (7300 and 9700) + bunches of other stuff
that need power/. I bought 50 A because sometimes both radios are transmitted
simultaneously, and I always wonder what I will purchase next and worry about
buying a new power supply.

I run a size 27 deep cycle / starting rated AGM battery fed by a 30a Astron. I
run either a FT991A or a FTDX10 and a 600w DC Worthmore 12vdc Amp all off the
battery. With this setup, power outages are not an issue.
I run a similar setup at our farm/deer camp and use a 12v brick pc for
internet.
Get the bigger power supply. It will have an easier life and if you
acquire more power hungry equipment later you're still good.
