Default Re: Tesla 308U

Nice work. I've attached a couple of photos of mine. I bought it in a second-hand shop in Prague quite a few years ago. You're right that it does run hot - mine so much so that I rarely use it. I did try it on the 115v setting via an autotransformer but it still got pretty hot on top. I think it would be a good candidate for a capacitive dropper and I might get around to that one day. Nice display piece though so meantime it sits happily on the shelf collecting dust! Cheers, Jerry
