Maplin - mains transformers
"Sylvain VAN DER WALDE" wrote in message news:... "Peter Lynch" wrote in message ... I've just been on their website, looking for a transformer to power my latest and greatest piece of futility (that's the DIY angle). Looked up the mains transformer section and got a real surprise. All their toriodal transformer range is listed as "discontinued" :-( Just out of interest I looked up variants: Their total stock holding of PCB mounted mains transformers come to 7 (5 of one type, 2 of the other) So far as traditional mains transformers goes, most of the voltage ranges only have single-figure stock levels. the only range that has what I'd've thought of as practical stocks is the sub-miniature range. OK, putting aside any views of "they're not a serious vendor anymore, they're only interested in selling toys" that people may have. Does this paltry offering reflect lack of demand or is it just another symptom of their decline? They're opening a new store in Camden, London. What does that suggest to you? Don't ask me. I don't know. Sylvain. Pete -- .................................................. ........................ . never trust a man who, when left alone ......
