I am beginning to think I will just stay with the dc switching supply on the 26. It is fairly small and easy to adjust for the right voltage with just a couple of resistors and the adjustment screw. I can get a good measurement of the voltage and I can get it very close to the 1.5vdc I need. The halo is giving me a hard time as I have no way of accurately measuring the output as far as I can tell. Been trying to adjust it with resistors but it seems to very sensitive to the value. Just a few tenths of an ohm can make it go from working to not working, and with no way of measuring the output I am reluctant to waste 26's trying to see if it is right. Oh well, I got close and it only cost a few bucks to try it out. If anyone else figures out a way to use them for under 2 vac please post your method.
