...Hence my ORIGINAL plan to attempt paralelling the
"de-wound" secondaries. ...I understand that wire awg
size determines the current rating....I was just
HOPING that the parallel thing would be a solution. I
guess I'll tear her open (need to yank the sticks out
(diodes) and so on...then i'll check out her sec. awg
size, and see if im in the ballpark for gettin
anywheres near -at- least 800 ma for a short duty
cycle...

Thanks for all your input,
