Re: power conversion
S.P.
Thanks for the quick response. So, is that unit you have a 'toroidal'
converter? No noise
problems - very good indeed! With my setup, I'm needing to draw around
1000 watts.
Is that in your ball park? I'm looking at a unit that sounds similar to
your description - a
little bigger though. I think that I need to do some minor wiring which
is not a problem.
I'm a student here (Devon - of all places) and the tech guys at my school
are fantastic.
