I want to bread board a pp 2A3 amp and to do so I need a heavy duty 2.5 volt filament transformer (10A) for the 2A3s. Just so happens I have a 5v/30A filament tranny that is center tapped. I hooked up my dvm to one side and the ct and when I brought it up on the variac it showed 2.5 vac. Is this a legit way to get the filament voltage I need or am I missing something? Also, would I get the full 30 amps or only 15? Thanks |
