Subject: now FREE: two large HV transformers, local pickup only
Reply-To: gomez@xxxxxxxxxxxx
Okay, I have got to make more room in my shop, so these fine purpose-
built Tesla coil HV supply transformers have to go! I wanted to get
some money for them, but so far haven't had any takers. I could
probably be convinced to trade them for a case of Newcastle or the
like, or give them away if someone can convince me they are going to
build a large TC with them, as I had originally intended to do. I'd
really rather you not just take them and sell them to someone else,
but of course, I can't control what you do with your property after
I've given it away...
WHAT:
* Two HV transformers, custom-built for DiaboliCo (long out of
business) by Magnetic Specialties. Current-limited by custom
external ballasts, included.
* output: 15kV @ 500mA. Short circuit current with provided
ballasts: 800mA
* input: 240V
* wiring: single ended (case is secondary ground, primary is not
ground connecter or center-tapped. Single HV output bushing,
utility type, with hand-tightening knob, as used on many pole pigs.
* type: oil filled (made in 90's with modern transformer oil, no PCBs)
* case: stainless steel!
* included: steel cart with plywood reinforced bottom, just large
enough to hold both transformers, but cart casters are under-sized
and should be replaced with larger, wider, heavier-duty casters with
ball or roller bearings.
WHERE:
Denver, Colorado, near 38th & Federal. Pick up only. Personal
circumstances prevent me from paletizing, crating, or shipping these.
First offer of cash or some trade I'm actually looking for (milling
machine tooling and accessories, 2HP variable frequency inverter
type AC drive with 1ph in and 3ph out, lathe tooling and
accessories, good beer, dancing girls, hot tub, maid service, etc)
wins, otherwise, if I don't get any offers soon, I will be giving
them away... I leave it to chance, the fates, and your own eagerness
who will get first crack at 'em.
