"Free" defective Fisher OPT
Hi, Vacuumlanders,
I bought two Fisher P-P OPT's on eBay but one has an open circuit 1/2 primary! Seller refunded 1/2 the money. I have no use for it as I don't wind or rewind OPT's and have no interest in SE use (although it would not like the high net DC in the primary), also it's too big for radios - about 20 - 25 watt size. Anyone who wants it for the iron (or copper) can have it just for the postage - first come first served. Hate to just chuck it out! Packed, it would be about 6 lbs, 5x5x5 inches. Canada Post website gives CDN$19, say US$16, to the mid-west USA (no "handling" or packing fee.) Torontonians and "GTAers" - free pick-up! Send me an email. Cheers, Roger PS. Visible email address is fake for anti-spam - use "analogdino attaboy rogers dotty-as-they-come", suitably decoded. |

Fisher defective OPT
This is why I would rather spend a little more and buy new transformers. I
recommend removing the endbells and chiseling the windings off with a chisel and giving the lams to any one who wants to wind something but probably no one around does. Mostly people use new lams because they are not expensive. -- Message posted using http://www.talkaboutaudio.com/group/rec.audio.tubes/ More information at http://www.talkaboutaudio.com/faq.html |

I'm contemplating trying to disassemble the lams by pulling out some end ones until all are loose and I can get at intact the windings coils. I may have some uses for the wire. Cheers, Roger PS. Wouldn't it be great if the broken 1/2 primary wire was right on the outside! I know... pigs might fly! |
