hi.
I see what you mean but if we are talking about replacing the tx , thena new mount wiil have to be made similar to the KI. This could be offset.

Yeah, you're right about that.
It won't hurt to put in a bigger tranny, but I think i'm going to figure out first how much current is actually needed. I would rather use the extra diameter to fit in a nice earth-screen between primairy and secondairy, or have a medical spec. tranny instead.

Hi again,
Can someone measure what would be the maximum diameter and height that a tx could be? obviously, allowance would have to be made for mounting.
Manufacturing cost would not be significantly higher for a largerVA rating,

Don't think so. Looks like 75 mm is the maximum diameter,
otherwise C804 gets in the way...
Unless its offset the standard KI TX is just about maximum size.
The 5V rail has 630mA fuses on it. Mine now has 1A fused because the 5V rail is demanding 830mA due to bigger caps. hehe

hi.
The KI tx uses the mounting holes from previous models.
If we are to replace the standard tx, a custom mount will have to be made and this can be offset.

That applies to both the CD67 and the CD63. I have a 80mm roll of tape here, and that's barely going to fit. It will allmost touch the tray when it's in, and C804.
EDIT: It will be tight, but maybe 50VA can be done.

Good point 6h5c. I looked with tray out. lol
To be honest the only two mods mr KI did over SE was TX and copper chassis. And we all know there is quite a good improvement.
So a custom TX that fits (70mm) will be a very good mod for a 63 or SE (IMHO)
After that use smaller TX for certain rails.

Just make a big external psu, you know you want to 😉
I'm gonna put a tx or two in a big box to join my lonely clock psu's tx, and connect the unsmoothed dc to the player via a DIN plug I reckon. Then smooth it in the player, or smooth it some more in the player. The original tx may have to be removed too, but I might break something in the process.

Hmm, I wasn't gonna replace it, sorry Brent! I was just gonna externalise it to get it away from the player. As much as anything it worries and annoys me the way it flops around when I'm working on the pcb. I broke one of the connections once... might aswell take it out and wire it so a molex connector or two, or a motherboard ATX power connector. Only slightly crap thing is the power switch would then be redundant. Hmm, I could remove the button and install some UV LEDs in there.......... hmmmm
I use a cable tie when working on pcb to hold TX.
Leave the switch there!!!
6h5r.. dont forget alot of people have larger caps too so there is even less room
I also have large HexFRED diodes that get in the way.

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
🙁

No, no, I didn't realize that Simon has a KI also. I thought he was talking about a standard 63 😀
Sorry.
