Are power supplies some big trouble spot lately? My impression is that they
have a similar failure rate to anything else in the box, and that both
premium and low cost replacements are easy to find and, well replace with.

For the paranoid, get em while I have em, I have some telecom PC power
supplies that run off 42 to 57 vdc input with the typical PC outputs. 150
watts, but these are not cheap units, made by Computer Products for
NetBridge I think.
