Hey guys,
I have a few PSU's
What are my options to do something useful/interesting.
I've already made a bench power supply, a usb charger array, and powered a car deck and speakers to make a really dope speaker system with bluetooth.
I have a few more left. Any Ideas?

See how many of the wires you can get up your asshole before you bleed
build an inverter to power your power supplies

I have used one before to test headlight bulbs. Litteraly just wired a headlight receptacle thing to it, powered on PSU and plugged bulbs in to see if they work.
Also I've see the same concept but instead of testing bulbs, some guy made a row of receptacles, mounted them to a short piece of metal in a row, and used it as a lighting system for his workbench. Not as efficient as just getting one long fluorescent light but its kinda fun to make.

Well you could supply power

I mean, it's a power supply. It supplies power. The question is more "whats an easy cool thing I can do with electricity".
To which I would say go check out hackaday or something. Lot of cool projects on here too.
Short one out and see if it has short circuit protection.
You could find a computer with a dead power supply and fix the computer.
You could sell it for a small amout of money

Wire them all together in Series, see what happens.

Turn one into a fancy tattoo gun power supply. Sell for profit. Turn another one into a surveillance camera power supply. Sell for profit. Turn another one into a 3v/5v/12v gadget power supply. Sell for profit.
