About: "The linear supplies are not very efficient, and use a lot of power just idling, (etc.)" Linear supplies not having current drawn (no load) should not dissipate any power at all. 73, Roy K6XK

Not true. A power transformer connected to the power line will draw magnetizing current, and there will be power dissipated. 73, Jim K9YC _______________________________________________ TenTec mailin

I'm not sure what your statement is based on, but it sure doesn't match my experience. My RS-20 consumes (converts to heat) over 20 watts with nothing connected to its output. That's not a whole lot

Wade, Take a big, and I mean a really big gulp, and try an LED light. Gosh they're expensive, but they don't have the RFI that the CFI seem to manufacture I have several 110 Edison based LED lights i

Two sets of these in the Shack. Caught the first set at Auction for around Five Bucks with shipping. Fifteen to Twenty Day wait to get them from China. I sure wish that we still made stuff like this

I think that is when we will gain the ultimate efficiency for lighting...when we distribute DC power through our homes for lighting and avoid the inefficiencies in the crazy power supplies that are b

Don't forget Ohm's Law. The reason we use AC for power distribution is that it can be transformed to the voltage needed to keep wire loss low. Low voltage DC is fine if copper is free. :) 73, Jim K9Y
