power supply, 50v at 50a, $41 inluding shipping on eBay (or $500 from M2, with cabinet that attaches to their amp)


same device can be used as amp on other ham bands, 1-600mhz

Cool video showing this device is so rugged it can survive a direct short on the output:

I think we will be seeing a lot of this device in both HF and VHF amps of the future.
