The question is picking the best fit bridge rectifier, for the 30 DC plus volt @ 10 amp power supply. I know to use a larger volt/amp rating then what the power supply will produce, but for some reason the rectifiers go from 1~6 amps and then jump to 25 amps at a reasonable cost! The 12 amp rectifiers are three times as much in cost as the 25 amp ones! So is it ok to use the higher amperage ones vs. the costly 12 amp units?
