RE: Power supply for coding/programming - Spirit5676 - 31-01-2017
I would consider MAAS SPS-50-II. I got it currently and it's working fine. Only issue I see is that it is only 50A constant and 55A max. Adjustable from 9-15V. If 50A is enough for you then it's pretty good option it costs ~150€. I'm currently considering getting a server PSU that can deliver 140A.

Will the plug fit?
I also purchased it from the usa..... and use it with adapter no problem...

I have done an E46 an for this it is enough
Maybe for newer cars and more ECU`s isn`t. But you can close all consumers espacally A/C and maybe it is enough

When I was flashing my F30 335i using ISTAP, I used a F25 X3 35i as the power source. It was sufficient. Total flash time was about 57 mins.

How about CTEK charger and supply. I have CTEK MXS 7.0 for 3 years. It is a good piece of tool to keep as it will help to maintain the battery optimum performance and act as power supply when programming.

That can give max 7amps
Flashing can require 70amps

And you cannot adjust voltage with CTEK.

Hi everyone, my understanding is that the Schumacher INC-70A is one of the most popular power supply units here and should be sufficient for my e90 and e92. But my question is, before I pull the trigger on it, will it also be good enough for my F15 x5? I don't run a business, it's just for my personal cars. Thanks.

Yes, I've been full flash my friend's F15 X5 30d by ISTA/P with Schumacher INC-70A, all fine.
