I assume that this PSU needs a 20A circuit? (I have those here...hmm.)

Total Power: 2000W @200-240Vac, 1500W @115-200Vac, 1200W @100-115Vac.

For that amount of money, you'd think it would come with a warranty longer than 2 years (according to Newegg's site), or 1 year (according to the FSP online shop). The FSP spec page fails to mention warranty length altogether: https://www.fsplifestyle.com/en/product/cannon2000w.html

So, in truth, it's only a 1200W PSU @ 115V AC, and only has a 1 or 2 year warranty? How disappointing, for a "2000W OMG~!" PSU...

I missed the output that BoomerD posted as I was just looking for the warranty.

They 115V output is pretty disappointing as FSP usually makes good power supplies. This unit is likeky one big pass from anyone needing a big PSU.

Maybe I overlooked this, can you plug this into a USA NEMA 20-6 240V outlet? If so, then this PSU may have a purpose. I have a circuit here for an air conditioner, that has both a 120V and a 240V socket on the outlet box. I've been plugging into the 120V outlet with a power strip, on my dining room table, and I've had a couple of dedicated mining PCs (just regular PCs, not "mining frames" or milk jug miners). I used it for that, because my main circuit in both my bedroom and living room is all on one singular 20A 120V circuit, and I was tripping the breaker with too much stuff plugged in. (Got some beefy UPSs, so when that happens, the PCs don't cut out, I can just flip the breaker back.)
