Power supply recommendations?
What is a good and not very expensive power supply that can handle the amp draw of a 40-50 watt GMRS mobile to be used as a base station? Turns out the power supply that I
What's enough power for a base station? : r/gmrs
Like on the 2m band I'd say 50 watts is plenty, 75 watts is a hell of a lot, and 100 watts is for high up repeaters with important jobs. Just my own $0.02 on that but it tracks with my experience.

How to create a Universal Power Supply for your
The Graphite base station calls for a power supply that supplies 12VDC at up to 1.25 Amperes, i.e. 15W (multiply the volts x amps to get the power rating in watts).
Understanding power supply requirements
I figured that a 50W transceiver running on a 12V (-ish) power supply would pull around 4A max, but the specs for this radio show a "maximum current drain" of around 13A.
What Size Power Supply Do I Need?
We highly recommend using a regulated power supply when selecting a power source for our radios. Switching power supplies may work; however, they can produce high noise levels,
