E-bay power supply

[Vanquizor]

Has anyone tried one of the 500w supplies on e-bay advertised as having current limiting built in for battery charging? Seems like it should work without a limiting board...

I'm thinking something like this one:

I have this power supply and it worked fine for a year charging a 14s pack (58v) and a 15s pack (62v) until it fell 4 feet on to a tile floor. It still works but is stuck at 57.8v. It runs a little hot. Not too much fan noise. Should work fine for an 18s pack.
