Has anyone used this for B+ turn on delay?
If so what do you think of it?
Hook it up in series with the secondary B+ input. - or + side?
Is it a bad Idea to put one more piece of "sand" into the PS line?

I use them as a B+ delay in the CT of the power transformer. Use them in the AC power in and put a relay as the load. AC would be input and a relay to switch the B+ as the load. They work great but a small relay coil load may not trigger them properly so a resistor across the relay coil to increase the load on the timer may be needed.
