MST-80 Auto Voltage Regulator or Doctor Charge 50 TELWIN

MST-80 is quite good only cooling fans make much noise.

Eltek Multicharger 1500 is very good and quiet!

I use MAAS SPS 9600. 60 amp power supply which keep the voltage output steady whatever the amp demand. I bought it 240euro.

But is 60ah enough for 7 series.
I've recently programmed a F01 and used easily 60ah.

I have also maas, and 60a is enough.
price/quality is good

Iam using powermax 75 amp power supply, scored one on ebay for $80 shipped. Did 16h session on E60 with j2534 and BMW online services, voltages were steady 13.8V at all times. Great little thing. Amazon has them as well as ebay.

I been using a Schumacher INC-700A for the last 3 years doing hundreds of sessions and it has been almost flawless. Bought it off of amazon ($375 usd) and after a year it would all of the sudden click and shut-off, which was quite concerning.

Contacted Schumacher only to find out they do not support this model after 1 year warranty period.

Took it apart and found that the power cord ends were attached using spade connectors, which were loose causing my shut downs. After correcting that issue it has been perfect for last couple of years.
