I've played with MOTs and have found that by wiring the primaries of
2 MOTs in series and connecting to 120VAC they don't saturate. This
keeps primary current lower and the core doesn't overheat when left
powered on for an extended time. (secondaries were removed)

Ooh, thanks Art, you did a good job of documenting that. Looks like
you already did a good deal of invention on this particular wheel;
thanks for that.


Correction: Thanks to Bob Engelhardt for putting the page together, and
thanks to Art for showing it to me.

I need new glasses.
