Not understanding SMPSUs - do they provide complete magnetic isolation
like
a simple transformer does?
Yes, assuming you mean ones with external power output
OK...
TRhe beuauty of a simple linera PSU for home build projects is it's hard
to get it wrong, provided you keep the mains wiring nicely separated from
the ELV side.
They're quick, easy & simple. SMPSUs arent.
I noticed lots of Christmas tree lights still come with conventional
transformers. Not much else though.
