Re: [TCML] China Made Variac

Note that while this variable autotransformer is protected by a 20A fuse, the power rating printed on the housing is only 2,000 VA, which is only slightly over 15 A at 130 volts. The core is fairly close in size to US made variable autotransformers rated at 10-12A.

Does anybody have any experience with China made variacs such as the one
available via the link below.   Is there a reason I should stay away from
them?
