Shipping costs are determined by weight.
The least expensive way to ship is by USPS Flat Rate
An Envelope with a limit of under 4 lbs is $15.50
A Medium Flat Rate Box limit under 20 lbs $44.50
A Large Flat Rate Box limit under 20 lbs $56.50
As for PayMent I will accept PayPal with a 5% fee
or a TT with a $15.00 fee.

question for Steve on the toroids: Do you really, or sort of, rate the voltage of these babies @ the specified amps??
What would the no-load ACV be on the 13.6--15.5V or so?



I see if the toroids are marked and normally the voltages are no load voltages
otherwise they need to be checked and use a DMM also under no load.

NOT Step up/down XMFR's

but I might have some transformers to take you from 115-220 and 220-115 in stock various va rating's
I am an Electronic Tech. & spent 20 yrs. living in Europe & Asia, so I know all about Step up/down XMFRs. I can buy those here in Philippines.

What I need are the 220 volt power supply boards (or simply the Internal 220V power XMFR), for APEX DVD players.

Reason for Converting electronics: In Philippines the AC power is 220V, single phase, 60Hz, UNgrounded. Neutral is rarely actually grounded. In Phils. Neutral is an ungrounded "Common". The Phils. electric outlets are the old 2-prong USA outlets. Filipinos don't understand different AC voltages. They see an AC plug that matches an AC outlet & plug it in. Without converting 110V electronics to 220, eventually they WILL be plugged into 220V & destroy the internal pwr. XMFR. For an external step down XMFR to preclude being unplugged, it MUST be Hard-Wired into the AC pwr cord. It's much better to simply replace the internal 110V pwr XMFR, with a 220V version. Once that is done, the equipment can never be plugged into the wrong voltage.
