RE: Another thought on this...

Don't worry about the time Mike, I'm grateful for your advice.
"the max AC current that you can deliver is 1.41 times the standing dc current before the onslaught of current clipping"
Well, that's an entirely new concept for me. Is this independent of core size and design? In other words, if I have a 100 mA choke and a 10 mA choke, and the DC current through each is 10 mA, neither choke can accept more than 14.1 mA of AC without clipping?
Also, let's say I'm driving 140V pk-pk across the choke. That would create approximately 5 ma peak current (10 mA pk-pk) in the EXO-001 at 20 Hz, or 3.5 mA RMS. Which of these versions is the correct one to apply to the 1.41 criteria - peak, pk-pk, or RMS?
Thanks again!
