Default Re: DIY battery eliminator for valve radio

The three way portables, AC-DC-battery type used one power supply for both HT and LT sources. You had to be very carful for over voltage conditions.
Those type had a tricky sort of switching arrangement for the valve filaments, for a series-parallel configuration so it can operate on three volts LT. The battery only sets are a lot simpler.
