    Wich Psu you suggest for 2 sabertooth 2x32 and 4 dc motors 12v 23A courrent 40A peak.
    Do you thin is better a single Psu for both saberthooth and 4 motors or one Psu for each sabertooth and 2 motors?
    Actually I have 4 psu like these http://www.ebay.it/itm/ALIMENTATORE...777576?hash=item41b4f43568:g:iegAAOSwPCVX8mll
    and I would like to connect them in parallel, but I think it's not a nice idea.
    Also my house that has a new electrical system and I believe well-sized but still domestic and therefore does not know if the cables are capable of supporting particularly high amperages
    I have read some threads here, especially the one that talks about DPS2000-BB but does not seem the best choice to use only one of these power supplies to power the 2 boards and 4 engines I have
    Any ideas?
    thanks

    Yes @gigi :thumbs ... a single PSU for each board is recommended ... and that last one is very good :thumbs for one Sabertooth 2x32 board and 2 of the motors you have .
