Re: [TCML] Oneac verses Sola



I haven't looked at SOLA in a long time - but what are you trying to accomplish - the SOLA constant voltage transformers that I was familiar with have no protection circuitry, nor do they provide isolation, and they produce a lot of heat - they use a saturable core to maintain a near constant voltage for equipment that is sensitive to brownout conditions - they were found with a lot of 1960s computer stuff. The older ones at least significantly distorted the sine wave, which wasn't much of a problem for stuff of that vintage, but it can be problematic with some newer equipment

Are you trying to correct for a voltage droop? (If yes, contact me off the list and I can give you the name of a guy that I sold a 16 amp sola-like (may have been real sola) unit to a while ago - he may be willing to sell it to you - but it's pretty heavy - in the 100 to 200 pound range - it came out of a doctor's office that had been using an Altair computer - that will date it ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Mora" <wavetuner@xxxxxxxxx>

Hello Power Conditioners,



Does anyone know the difference BTW a Oneac and the well known Sola's. Is
there additional protection circuitry?



Curious - Thanks,

Jim Mora



I guess if money was no object, an online UPS would rule?
