That's a lot of inductance for a power supply filter choke. The
current rating for such a choke may be very low. How much does it
weigh? a 30H 500 ma reactor should weigh in the neighborhood of 30 to
40 pounds. A 10H 700 ma power supply filter choke (like what would be
in a 1 KW AM broadcast tx) will weigh in at around 40 lbs, maybe 50.
