Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

RE: New project, voltage checks good, blows fuse after 45 minutes and power transformer hellaciously hot and odd smell

They say they try to follow as close and they did....And you are right 1mA does't make the differance.

But as i say before measure the anode voltage and kathode voltage, if that is correct then you know that this part is ok.

You must have somewhere a huge leakage current because even de electrolytics (if new/ reliable) have not such leakage currents.
