Can anyone recommend a good isolation transformer for sale on-line?
Need one that will handle 5 amps or so at 120VAC, and have a standard
AC plug at the outlet. Prefer one for less than $100 or so, unless
that seems unreasonable. Found one at Mouser for $114 but that's only
good for 1.25A. Getting lots of irrelevant hits on google...

Thanks.

You could always salvage a couple of microwave oven transformers and connect
them back to back. Make sure and disconnect the secondaries from the cores
though, of course.

I've been tempted to try that just to see how awful the regulation is and
what sort of waveform would even come out before the things burned up.
