What happens if I try to test a 1200 Watt power supply with a PSU tester that says
"This device is not rated for power supplies over 1KW"

Doesn't the tester just check voltages anyway?

Would have to see what this "tester" does. If it is actually a dynamic load then it would only show you 80% (probably a lot less) then what the power supply can really deliver.

If it is just a voltage checker, then I'm not sure how it is better then a $15 multimeter.
