I'd trust the Fortron unit.

Note that the max amperage on the 12 v rail is 10 amps.

the Meanwell will only do 12 v, but will supply 12.5 amps.

I assume that you added up your total load?

I havent calculated the total load just a rough guess.

I want it to power
3x panaflo 120= .45amp= 1.35 amp
1x80= .12 amp
1x92= .15 amp
1x50z pump = 1 amp? (in rush?)
1x matix orbital mx5 =(500 ma in rush/ 260 ma )

so i would be using between 3-4 amps which would leave me room to add another pump if i wanted.
