George, Adrian & Renee
These are some interesting possibilities.?
Fifty five years ago when I was a curious adolescent and as Dad
frequently elegantly stated, "A menace to society,) the supply
would have wound up something only Dr. Frankenstein could
have conceived or it might have been a subject of my experiments
with odd mixtures of ammonia and iodine.
Anyway I did prowl around looking for compact 120 to 240 or vice
versa transformers in the 30-50 VA class. Unfortunately patience
ran out before perusing all the Google returns.? The most likely
outcome of? this is the supply will be used when? dual supplies
lashups are needed and be powered from a 230 volt circuit in the
room used normally for powering a pair of 3-500Z's.
Circa 1972 while on a year long, all expense paid, government
sabbatical in Southeast Asia, a side trip to a local merchant's shop
resulted in the acquisition of a few gems. One was a flat of 2N56
Germanium transistors. Another was a 110-220 desktop transformer
that allowed me to use the 220 volt soldering iron purchased on the
local economy with the military installation's provided 110 volt US
standard power.?
Despite the fact I stumbled across that transformer after all these
years in one of my myriad boxes just six months ago, it has evaded
further sighting. So right now the plan is to wait until a concurrent
sighting of both the transformer and power supply occurs, assuming
I live that long. LOL. Yeah, I am a hoarder.
Regards all
