Does anyone have any experience with using off brand power supplies for ASIC miners?
Are they any good?
Would you risk using one on your $10-15k machine?
If you have used an off brand PSU, which one is it and was it good?
One brand I know is:
en.gullpower.com, I purchased an APW12 for $465.00 for an Antminer S19j Pro 104TH (I know a lot, I wanted it quick and I wanted to be able to return it if I was unhappy).
Regards,

Why would you purchase a power supply when the power supply is already attached to the unit?
To prevent downtime while replacing a unit beginning to fail.
An under warranty PSU could take up to 20 days turnaround time to be repaired or replaced. All the while you are losing BTC revenue.
If you only need 6 pin connectors you can use most any computer power supply sold of sufficient wattage for your task. They are regulated decently by the industry for efficiency and competition among manufacturers means they are cheaper. There isn’t much difference otherwise.
