I think I hate my son. I've been getting stuff together to make a *real

He just called and told me he has REAL three phase on his property. Less
than a hundred feet from the machine shed. I'd give my left nut for real
three phase. I got a price of 20K several years back and should have done
it.

He may still get sticker shock on the hook up price and minimum monthy
charge but its there. he's going to ask this week. His one question 440 or
220? I'm thinking he's better with 220 and put the house on it to get some
useage. Good idea?

He is better with 440..but it can be damned inconvienent, so unless one
has a few good sized 440/220 3ph transformers kicking around...stay
with 220. Need a couple? Ive go several...
They start off at 300 lbs and go up from there....


Filament transformers? ;-)

VBG


I've used tubes with dual, 1.5 VAC, 1000A filaments. The two
filaments had to be balanced to less than 1/100 volt difference to
prevent hum in the audio & video outputs.


GACK!!!!!

Good lord...one could cook a 5 course meal over those.

Metal or glass shell?

"First Law of Leftist Debate
The more you present a leftist with factual evidence
that is counter to his preconceived world view and the
more difficult it becomes for him to refute it without
losing face the chance of him calling you a racist, bigot,
homophobe approaches infinity.

This is despite the thread you are in having not mentioned
race or sexual preference in any way that is relevant to
the subject." Grey Ghost
