Title: filament ma
Post by: JBP on December 29, 2012, 11:56:38 am

Hi, my next build has a total filament ma of 1800. The pt I'm thinking of using is rated 2amp for filament. Is this cutting it too close? Thanks, Jeff

it'll be fine. most transformers are overbuilt and in your case, even if it wasn't, you're good to go.
