yeah, modulargrid made me aware of the problem, though it's not always correct with it's values so i advise anyone to double check figures...

so for an individual who fears the power of electricity, the only way to get more power is to add in a A-100 DIY Kit #1

But note that you need to calculate the total current draw on a module by module basis-stated by manufacturers-not just what would seem to fit the cabinet/rack size. It is best to add the total draw for positive and the total draw for negative together then add 10%. as soon as that approaches your max current draw you need to upgrade.
