Let me back up a bit here and say that we don't disagree at all. I don't
use randomly selected parts at all. Every part, every section and every
circuit I deal with gets a full test as near the rated limit as possible.
All my parts are tested before, at and after installation. Prob one of
the reasons it takes me forever to get a lot done. I've just become so
jaded that I don't trust any one or any thing before, during and after.
Yes, please ask your friend to comment at his convenience.
I was just wondering who the original mfgr of the Heath SB-220
transformers are for curiousity only. I actually have a small stockpile
of them still from "the big shutdown" but I do appreciate your offer.
Thanks Rich for your information about the "big" MOV's. The GE brand
units I've used in the past are pretty much all over the place in
tolerance.
