I have been using the Daiwa SS-330W since 2002 and it is lightweight, top notch reliable and the fan unit super quiet. It has dual meters and really works well. I now have two for both in the shack and field use.

A corollary question, if I may: I notice that all the switch mode power supplies have fans. The linear power supplies generally do not. I've been contemplating getting either an Astron SS-30M (switcher) or an RS-35M (linear). I like the idea of lower weight (think Field Day) but I hate fan noise with a passion.

Do any of the switchers have fans that are relatively quiet or that ramp up with load? Any recommendations? (Nope, I won't buy both!)
