It's just that the 15 or 20w versions were out of stock. Those are smaller and lighter. Oh well.
Just to make sure we are on the same page .. sometimes it's hard to tell

One terminal, 12V + in, came loose in shipping. The screws that fix the DC/DC to the case were in just a bit loose, but they held the DC/DC in place.
