Default Re: Found EKCO device in the attic

As has been said Ekco C2A High and Low Tension Eliminator, HT Output up to 20 mA, LT 2 to 6 volts .2 to .5 amp. I have a couple of these which I have got working but I would be careful restoring and powering it up if you haven't had much experience with these early units, the mains transformer doesn't look very impressive. The HT smoothing capacitors in a block in pitch will require replacement, the LT smoothing is done with two early high value early electrolytic capacitors which will now be useless.
Mike.
