The UK has stricter electrical requiremnets (BABT) and the UK power
supplies are much more expensive because of that.

Thank the UK government.  Rather than saddle all of our users with that
expensive supply, we have a special UK model to placate the regulation
happy Brits. 8-)

Sure:

The MAS-21 is a Power-One. (150W)
    MAS-23 is a PSI power supply. (175W)
    (21A and 23A are the same supply, strapped for 220 V)

    MAS-28 is the CPI power supply.  This is the newest one for the M and C.
    It autoranges. (175W)

For the UK:

    MAS-25 is the AGS+, MAS-26 is the AGS/MGS, MAS-27 is the CGS.

    I think the UK power sipplies are all Farnell.


And, for completeness:

    The AGS 200W power supply is MAS-11.
    THE AGS+ 400W power supply is MAS-400. (Zenith, I think)
