looking for afordable toroidal transformer

[Roushon]

I am having a tough time purchasing a toroidal transformer. I contacted RS India in Mumbai and the price for a 25-0-25 v 225VA is Rs 3500/-. That is about 76 US$ excluding postal charge. Can anyone help me on this matter and tell me some sources (probably from outside india) where I can purchase in a cheaper rate.

Thanks in advance...

Not too helpful for Roushon, but Parts Express has a 25V + 25V 250VA toroidal transformer for USD$42.

You can save even more if you just buy direct from Avel. 250va is under $40.

Thanks a lot tg3 and jean. I will contact Avel.

Now I am very glad that I became member of this community.

I have nothing to say to Geek.

I was olny sharing my knowledge of toroid prices compared to my suppliers. I will assume something got lost in the translation there on your end....

Perhaps that's exactly what you should have said then, nothing....

Hi Carondimonio,

Thank you very much for telling me about this source. Actually I already sent e-mail to them and got no reply. And then thought I should ask people here.
I will try to contact them again.

Regards.

I wouldn't say so, I can get that sort of thing from Farnell here for much less than £30 inc delivery. £30 is roughly US$54.
