So if you came to just study the technical results in this review and nothing else, then the Sharkoon Rebel P15 750W power supply may seem disappointing – but really this unit is all about the aggressive pricing. At 65 euros Sharkoon are definitely targeting the price conscious enthusiast gamer who wants to know that even a small spend will get them a stable and reliable power supply.
The Rebel P15 750W is shipped in a very basic box, with very limited accessories. Sharkoon have not wasted any money on the packaging or accessories. Additionally, all the cables are hardwired, and there are no unique or eye catching selling points.
It is all as bare bones as possible. This is to help keep the price down and makes sense to me, after all there is a reasonably large audience in 2025 who will appreciate a solid little workhorse like this for powering a low to mid range system. Money is tight.
Technically the P15 750W delivers pretty good results, ripple suppression (while some way short of the leading units on the market) falls well within industry rated tolerances and the results highlight that Andyson have partnered up with Sharkoon to ensure power delivery is stable. The Rebel P15 achieves Gold rated efficiency – it also has the Cybenetics seal of approval as well to verify this. Cybenetics is a much more in depth and accurate certification system than 80 Plus, so it is great to see that Sharkoon have trusted this unit to be verified by Aris and his team.
Load regulation is decent and the P15 handled the cross load stress test fine as well. On a very positive note, I was stunned to see that this design has managed to incorporate a very high grade primary stage capacitor from Japanese company Nippon Chemi Con (470uF KMW series). I don't think there has ever been a unit I have tested less than 70 euros to adopt a 105c rated Cap from a leading Japanese brand. I tip my hat to Sharkoon for this.
Of course there are some negatives, the fan can get loud under higher loads, and while never painful it is clearly audible if you need more than 500 watts on a regular basis. It didn't bother me that much, but if you are specifically susceptible to fan noise, this might be more of a problem for you. All the cables are hardwired, which is a pain when building a system as you have to route and hide cables you might not even be using. But at this price point, compromises have to be made.
Right now stock of these products is filtering into the channel. Some of the models are currently available on Amazon DE and more will be hitting various locations in the coming month. UK stock is still to follow.

KitGuru says: If you are working with very limited funds but don't want to take a risk on an unknown Asian brand then the Sharkoon Rebel P15 is one to be making the top of your shortlist.
