Well...I acquired this Jefferson transformer last weekend...with a pair of Sola VRT"s I won in an auction. All trannys were NIB.

This one is a HV transformer...120IN and 2.5KV out..

I only played a bit with it. Put about 14V on it(from one of the VRT'S), and and got over 250 out.

it is about 3 IN.X 3.5 In in size.

Not yet sure what I will do with it...

It's similar to the transformer that the Sylvania Halolites used. :scratch2:

My heater has an electrostatic filter, uses a transformer like that to make about
6.5Kv Zap's dust into oblivion !
