1)they are duplicate supplies. We'll call them left and right, but to be more accurate, they are +ve phase and -ve phase for one amps output.
2) the far right is -ve for one binding post, the far left is the other -ve for the other binding post.
3) the amps are running right now, so I can't check the resistor. If memory serves, 1000 Ohm.
Would it be just as easy for me to buy a single full wave rectifier per amp, and install it?
If I wire both +ve's and -ve's together (coming off the transformer), I retain voltage, just double amperage. FWR to match.
If I take the tranny wires, series them, I will have twice the voltage, with the same amperage. My new storage caps are 500V where the present ones are 200V.
