Dear Everybody
I am waiting the measurements from Steve. After that I can figure which box to use for shipping and get shipping costs.
Then I will invoice and send Steve the lump sum, he will ship to me, I will ship to you, we will all build great amps and smile

I found the dimensions ILP's home page. The 160VA trafos are 110mm x 45mm w/o the mounting plates. With the mounting plates they're 50mm tall. Link to the info pdf

Thanks Marc.
Steve emailed me the dimensions last night. 3.6" diameter and 2.125" tall while the mounting bolt is 2.5"
I think that he got a custom transformer from them. Maybe not, but the part numbers on that pdf dont match up.

And in fact they don't show a stock 24-24V unit, so custom sounds likely. Can't see any reason why they wouldn't have the same dimensions, though.

Me either, but maybe he specified a certain donut for this transformer.
That could change the size.

These might work for a dual mono regulated supply for the B1 buffer. Maybe a little overkill with the current.

Planning ahead - or trying to...

Does anyone have a good source for mounting hardware for the Toroids??? From some pix I've seen what I mean looks like a big metal washer with an indentation that fits within the 'hole' in the Toroid.

Thanks,

The mounting hardware is included with the transformers. And yes, they were custom.

Guys/Gals
If you bought the MYREFC AMP kits you will definitely want to read all the way through this. If you did not you still will want to read most of this.

The toroids look like they will fit in a 12x12x5.5 Flat Rate Box for Steve to mail to me. These are 12.95 each. At 3.6" x 2.1" per toroid we could get them in 18 per box. That leaves only 1 inch each way in three dimensions so one half inch of packing material on every side but none inbetween if he stacks them 9 on bottom 9 on top. Thats the cheapest but I dont like it. Better to pack 3 in a row on their side so that the toroids are all right up against each other with maybe a piece of cardboard inbetween them but no stacking. This way you have 5 rows of 3 with cardboard inbetween and some packing material on all sides. Then the mounting material would probably all come in one separate box. So I think all in all shipping to me will cost about one dollar per toroid, which I will pass on to you all. So your total, which you will see shortly, will include $22 per toroid plus shipping to you of 9.80 for a flat rate box plus one dollar per toroid for shipping to me.

=================

If you have an amp kit/kits already paid for your total will include $22 per toroid plus the one dollar per unit shipping to me and if you paid only 4.80 shipping to Peter then there will be an additional 4.50 shipping charge to cover the difference in cost for the upsizing to the flat rate box. If you paid 9.80 shipping to Peter you will only be charged for the toroids plus one dollar each for my shipping expenses.
