Tried putting a swinging choke 5-25H in place of the first 8H choke in my psu and the ripple dropped from 468 mV to 210 mV. Still too much but a big improvement. Now I am trying to figure out why that happened and how I can apply that to the other choke and try to lower it some more. I don't have another swinging choke unfortunately. Is there a way to measure what value a swinging choke is at when the psu is powered up?
