- My friend obtained a 1000-VCT brute of a transformer, weighs 25 lb. Old Chicago Transformer, potted, looks mil-surplus. I assume it was made for a choke-input filter. He wants to use the full seconda

- If you derate the transformer for output current, the chokes are not necessary. You can also lower the peak factor on the windings by adding a small inductance in series with the primary to spread ou

- What about using a small series-R from each half of the doubler? I think regulation is less of a factor here because most of the current will be continuous. 73, Jim, KR1S http://kr1s.kearman.com/ __

- So, I should de-rate by 10% or so? You can also lower the peak factor on Small as in the inductance of filament transformer in series with the primary? Tnx for the help! 73, Larry KQ4BY Larry Keith

- That is one way to lower the peak current. But you get a slightly cooler transformer if you create the same heat in a resistor in series with the primary. During the peak currents, the transformer pr

- Too many unknowns to say exactly what derating factor is required. The goal is to keep the winding temperature in spec. Way too much. Something more like a millihenry or so, like what is used in big
