   * When using this to charge demonstrations like the can crusher to high voltage, you can speed up the charging process by setting the target voltage only one 500V 'step' ahead of the actual voltage reading. So for instance, if you want to charge something to 3000V, set the supply to 500V to start and move up in 500V increments once the reading approaches the set value, until you reach 3000V. This seems to cut the charging time in half.
