Agreed!
Be specially careful with RF transistors, and other specialty/high 
priced ICs and special purpose transistors. 
I have ordered several on eBay and received counterfeits.

Ulf, David,
 
I did a google search for the Crydom CSD2525P SSR but I can't find
any datasheet - could it be a "special" for some particular
application and is incompatible with what you are trying to do?
 
Indeed - I couldn't find a datasheet either! The closest seems to be 
the CSW2425, which is a snubberless, zero-crossing triggering, 
antiparallel SCR SSR. Snubberless is definitely not the right kind to 
use here, and zero-crossing triggering also leads to more trouble than 
advantages when controlling transformers. 
But that's for the CSW2425, not what you have...
Ulf, maybe you got a Chinese "eBay special" devices - which means 
fakes!  In that case nobody can tell what's really inside your little 
black boxes. There are quite a few crooks in China re-labeling ultra 
cheap or defective parts to look like more expensive, famous-branded 
ones. But the practice seems to be getting less common. Lately almost 
all parts I have ordered from China were real. Emphasis on "almost".
