Those figures look good. The HT has got plenty of headroom for EL's.

Some of my pots I ordered arrived today. More to come. I had to order from two different places as neither had all the ones I wanted.

I was amused at this.

That was cute. I'd like to see his face if he played through mine. Maybe someone should drop a link to Doug Hammond's mod and my conversion thread.

The thread has been resurrected about three times . I nosied through it and couldn't see any references to modding it, to my surprise.

There is now.

GV, I need your assistance again. I'm about to order the OT for my 18W TMB build. Like now.

The problem I'm encountering is the PT. All the PTs I see for these 18 watters have a 580V secondary. Like this one.

Mine only has 310V. I know I can drop the voltage with Zener Diodes, and I can take it up with caps, but what exactly am I needing? All the schematics I can find with voltages show the most I'll need is about 295V.

Can you point me in the right direction for the info I need? For some reason I have ignored the power supply through all my studying over the last few weeks. Now, I'm stuck.

The 18Watt forum is dead as hell these days, so any help I can get there takes a week to get. I'm so close to having it all figured out it hurts. This should be the last piece to figure out.

One of these 2 is what I want.

Can you link me directly to those images? They aren't readable, the moment I try to zoom in it pixelates to blur.

See if this will work. You have to sing up over there to get to this stuff.

The first one works the second needs permission [ Tra la la  la la  ] huge grin
There's no secondary wind voltage or HT A,B,C,D,E voltages either on them. I need these.

This is the best I can come up with. It's not the exact same circuit, but pretty damn close.
