Lx, you do not need to convince me that PP2000 has problem or problems. Of cause it is way beyond the sophomoric solutions like lift the ground and AC polarity. No, I did not try the cascading PP2000, I did ask PurePower about it and they were no...

I kind of thinking about it and I am not sure that I have an opinion. In the former PP2000 I stunted buttery with over 100K capacitors, presuming that it will driver DCR of buttery lower and therefore improve the day-to-day decoupling of PP2000 from ...
