Sorry if my question displays a lack of >basic knowledge, but that's how I learn. The TP3005 is adequate to the task 'barefoot'. Just turn the current setting all the way up, then hook the ovm across the power supply output terminals. Slowly increase the voltage until the ovm 'trips' (Current jumps up, voltage goes down). The trip should be in the range of 16.0 to 16.5 volts.
