Get yourself a Sola 'Constant Voltage Transformer'. I got mine from as
local
company 'cleaning out old junk' and it's good for about 30 Amps! Weighs
about 80 friggin' ponds( think sack of cement as big too!).
probably find them on Ebay, local colleges,electrical test shops,etc.
Any other method of stepup transformers,Variac etc will NOT be regulated
which is what I think you want. Anyone that sells Variacs should
know/have
the Sola


Where are you? I've got 3 old Solas sitting under my workbench.
The buggers run warm, and being old and not perfectly clean they smell
a bit - but if you can get to Waterloo Ontario you can have one for
free.
