Re: [TCML] Looking for a nive plate transformer

["David Rieben" <drieben@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jim,

That thought did cross my mind but that would make for
a really messy setup and MOTs are still way UNDER-
BUILT for their so-called "rated" voltage/amperage
output. Besides, one of our gracious fellow members has
already offered to sell me one of his plate transformers
that falls in the "close enough" catergory to my desired
specs for the price and at 59 lbs, it probably weighs as
much as five or six of those (2) MOTs that I'm now using ;^)
