Good Variac?
Anyone know which variacs to avoid? The brands I am thinking of are; Staco,
Calrad, General Radio and Superior Electric (which I think is the same as powerstat???). Thanks, Phil (not Diane) |

Hi, Phil I have a 4 Amp Superior Electric "Powerstat", and it seems of nice quality. A one amp Ohmite variable autotransformer also seems OK. 73, Ed Knobloch |
