Hello all,
I just purchased a Heathkit high voltage regulated supply on Ebay.
The description stated "It has been tested to power up and nothing
more."

"To me", having worked in industry, something tested *to* power up,
was checked out physically and taken *to* the point where they were
ready to apply power, but did not apply power.

On the news groups and e-bay it more than likely means they plugged it
in, turned on the switch and didn't blow a fuse, or *maybe* what ever
it was didn't smoke.
