Yep, that's my recollection too. Same deal as you though, the Triple-X
and Quad-X machines are in the loft and I wasn't motivated enough to go
dig them out! :-)
Having said that, I think the Torch 725 has a Farnell PSU in it (just
not with the soft-start of the T-X or Q-X). Hence it might be a supply
for one of those (lack of the NiCd would be a clue there)
I have a feeling the Triple-X VME expansion slice used its own Farnell
PSU too.

I am pretty sure the Quad-X used the same PSU, but I am not pulling the
not-quite-complte one out from under my bed to check. I have here a Farnell N110P411 open-chassis
SMPSU. On a relay on one
end of the board there is a white sticker with the text "TORCH
COMPUTERS LTD (C) 1983" and a QC stamp.
I expect that's the one used in the Torch Triple-X - it's about 125W I
think... I have a hand-drawn schematic of the XXX supply (and
the rest of the
machine for that matter).
And you were kind enough to furnish me with a copy of that :-) I think
it was the only Torch schematic that I didn't have...
