The important part is to make sure, that she has no clue as to how much the cost

hey, I have a quick question 🙂 I made a mistake on a PCB and accidentally put a line filtering cap (X2/Y2 type cap) on the secondary side of the trafo instead of the primary. There really isn't room to put a series resistor with this capacitor, which seems might be necessary for a proper snubber. There isn't any sort of line choke on the primary to generate spikes, just line voltage on the other side of the transformer and a fuse. Anyways, my question is, is there any benefit at all from putting a capacitor in this sorta non-standard location?

wow, very interesting. In my case, I have a wimpy PCB mount transformer. It is an Amveco TE70032, 2x12VAC @ 292mA, or 7VA total. Secondaries are in parallel. So, it's not dual rectifiers, and not center tap... is there a second page to that spreadsheet? heh.

what's purpose of that xformer ?
luvdunhill said:It drives a regulator, a LT1086 in fact.

smart boy .......
what's after regulator .... as load ?
which drek ?
preamp , amp , welder , Tesla coil ?

actually, a DC-DC converter for driving electrostatic bias:

Thanks for the link -
I have heard about this all week and haven't had a chance to check it out. Inspiring in the least .😱

Worked for me! I kept rewinding it to the part right before she starts singing, then watched the reactions, and enjoyed the performance again.
