Why don't you ask these folks: http://www.wattsunlimited.com/ Surely one of you have disected this thing already. No, it's not a good supply for a "tube with handles", but it's pretty cool for what i

17% no load to full load regulation isn't so hot Joe. I'm not sure how that would be for IM products or CW waveform since power out is generally about the square of supply voltage change. The CW wav

The cool down time is about the same as the warm up time Ian, momentary sags wouldn't hurt a thing. Personally, I'd use a constant voltage transformer if it was that big of a deal. If I used a switc

I use a switching supply to run the filament of a GS35b in a 70cm amp for several reasons: 1. The filament volts should be backed off a little to allow for additional heating due to back-bombardment

See below; ** REPLY SEPARATOR ** The Heathkit 220 and a few other models had around 15% regulation which is right on the edge of saturation (they ran a high flux density to save on weight and cost).

I agree with everything you've said here Tom but that doesn't dissuade me from using the switcher on my indirectly heated filament on the Russian GS-35B triodes. As you stated before, price can be a

For what I have in mind, the heater supply will come from the secondary of a fully isolated transformer. 5kV insulation is easy to achieve and fault current shouldn't flow through the heater. I don't

Yes - terminology used about directly and indirectly heated cathodes, heaters and filaments varies both within and across continents. Given my interest in vintage wireless, I think of 813s, 3-500s et

Indirectly heated cathodes do have some thermal inertia which tends to keep the temperature more constant... but the scenarios I've experienced have involved sags in line voltage that were a lot more

Dear Steve, You raise a very good point in your question about what happens to a switching P/S in an arc situation. In a Class A power supply (ferroresonant, etc., ) there's a chance the filter cap(s

Hi Hal. I understand all the points you make - for sure anything with semiconductors in it has to be potentially more fragile than a simple mains transformer, but I think it also depends on situation
