RE: [TCML] NST Purchase
Hello Group,
The only issue I would take with an older, NOS France Transformer is the
asphalt tends to crack. I don't know this is a run issue or an age issue.
De-potting these at this price is excessive in my mind. Although they would
easily become 15/90's or maybe 120's.
"Parts and Kits Unlimited" has been trying to unload NOS 15/60 although I
can't vouch for them.
I have two Transo HP 15/60's that are epoxy potted and tied together which
may have an advantage unless they need to be resurrected. This is a messy
encevour with the asphalt France transformers. If one forces him/herself to
limit the safeties to just the full voltage arc point this shouldn't be an
issue.
Our neon transformers are getting more valuable since the mandated GFI units
came out!

Hi Finn, Fritz, all,
Yes, I believe this ebay seller is a "straight shooter".
The only caviat that I see here is that for that
kind of money, you may as well go ahead and
get a 10 kVA pig, which is much more robust and
powerful than even the largest NSTs. If you are de-
termined to stay with NSTs and want one (or more)
that you know will arrive in pristine condition, then this
seller (Alan Majernik- I believe is his name) is your
ticket. ;^)
