Throw light upon

Hi All,

Definitely, for 300 W / 70 V rated Zen Lite Amp, how many 150 W / 240 V bulbs I need in which disposition😕

Let me see if I have you clear. You want a 300 watt
Zen amp?

Not that I consider this unrealistic....

Considering that the amplifier would be 8% efficient, that would be a lot of light and heat created by this amplifier for that power... are you insane?

I think what you want to know is about the number 4.

Instead of 1*300W at 120V like Nelson Pass used in the article try 4 * 150W at 240V.

But, maybe its a cheap and easy way to use some 12V Halogen bulbs in serie and parallel, or like i did, use 2*500W Halogen 240V in parallel.

As an aside, after some research we did determine
that Halogens are perfectly good for this application.

Hi,

Sorry for confusion I made .

So let be 2 x 500 W Halogen in parallel.

Thanks all, especially to only and one.

try it with 35W or 20W 12V halogen lamps.


On my SOZ, I tried it with 3 lamps in series substituting one 8ohm resistor. works fine

here is a pic

Wasn't this amplifier featured in the movie Nation Lampoon's Christmas Vacation?
