Homemade Variovac

Posted by mark.korda@myfairpoint.net on April 4, 2017 at 08:49:09:
Hi,
there has been a homemade outlet box variovac in Dynaco on Ebay. It takes 123 volts on your outlet and brings it down to 115 volts and 108 volts for each plug on the box. The maker made it for the Dyna 70 transformer which he says runs optimally at 115 volts....is there anything to this? Could this 8 volt difference effect transformer humming?....I hope the ebay picture goes thru but if not the box is on the Dynaco catagory.....thanks for any ideas...Mark Korda
