Bugle2 is no longer sold as a kit, so I thought I might be able to put one together from the manual that Jim Hagerman has published. However, I am having a hard time figuring a couple of things out. Perhaps someone who bought the kit while it was still available can help me.
Question 1: the schematic states 1mH for the two inductors, but no other information is given. Looking at Mouser, I see that they have a lot of 1mH inductors with varying amp ratings and resistances. What amp rating and resistance should I shoot for?
Question 2: Jim has identified the wall wart he uses as Mouser 749-EIADT-UL-001. That transformer is rated at 24 volts and 100 mV ripple. That part is no longer available. However, I found a similar wall wart (Mean Well SGA25U) with 24 volts and 80mV ripple. Will that work or is there some other specification I should also be aware of? The datasheets for the two transformers are attached.
Thanks for any help anyone can give me.

Use a wall wart that has the same or somewhat more load current ability.
Don't get one that's very oversized, though. Verify the plug polarity and size also.
