davidcary pulls the voltage down?

 +What happens when the output voltage is set to 3.3 V, and I hook it up to a 12 V battery?
 +Which is better:
 +   * The PSU pulls the voltage down to 3.3 V (or as close as possible until it hits the current limit)? or
 +   * The PSU supplies zero current, letting the voltage float up to 12 V?
