What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
This product is for folks who have a basic familiarity with electronics. I just wish it had a 6-12v output to power the filaments on other tubes.
Cons
One pin from the transformer was broken off. Produces fluctuating voltage between 0 and 170 now. Comes in an 8-16v version which omits this regulator, shifting an smd jumper to pass the supply voltage straight through.
Highlights
Quality
Unit works well once the operation is figured out.
Competitiveness
Another (3-star) stated that it took him a while to figure out that output voltage is adjusted by a tiny screw.

The documentation is poor but an average person should be able to figure it out

Output is not floated but is tied to the common input ground

The unit does have bleeder resistors on the output so that when you turn it off the output voltages drain off within 10 seconds or so to safe levels
