Q: Why does the fan not run when I plug in my power supply ? A: The fan is Proportional (load and heat driven). If you are operating with enough load applied, the unit will begin to warm up and at a pre determined point the fan will turn on and speed up if heat increases. Our products are tested at 100% load twice before shipping and have no problem running at full load. A: The capacitors on the circuit board are recharging. Q: My Bulldog is a little warm even though I don't have a "load" applied ? A: The warmth comes from a small resistor that creates just enough of a "load" to keep the circuitry awake. If there were a "no-load" condition, the power supply would go to sleep and the output voltage (as viewed from a digital volt meter) would ramble until the power supply was awakened. This is inherent in power supplies that have regulated outputs. Q: Do I need to use the external grounding lug ? A: The lug is for 3 reasons: 1. If the outlet you have your power supply plugged into is an outlet without a ground, it provides a place to attach a ground wire. 2. If you are using your power supply permanently
