Look up Gary Brown
Transformer Rewinding Service
He is in Maine

He rewound mine. Cheaper than a replacement transformer price from Tentec ($575 plus 
shipping) and you will get a better transformer as a result.

I am NOT pleased with the Tentec power transfoirmers breaking down so frequently.
Gary says he has rewound a LOT of Centurion transformers. It tells me something is wrong 
with them if the fail so frequently and so easily.

At first I thought it might be the soft start board as I had a problem there some time ago.I disconnected the xformer primary from the soft start and powered up, the line fuses did not blow. Connected the xformer back up to the soft start and disconnected the HV  lead  to the tubes. The fuses blew. Then disconnected the secondary of the xformer from the the HV rect board and the fuses blew agn with nothing on the secondary.
