Using a bigger powersupply

[AxelMi]

I am upgrading a 40Watt D40 machine, and i need a new Powersupply.
Is it possible to use a Powersupply for an 80W-100W Laser ?
Later i want to upgrade to a 80Watt Laser, so it would be good, to buy now the bigger One.

Thank You.

Hi there
I would not recommend a power supply for a 40W lasertube that is bigger then max 60W, because
the higher the wattage the more high voltage they put out and this goes over the 40W limit
a 80W tube for a D40 makes actually no sense because of the way the D40 is designed and constructed
