Tweakers' Asylum Tweaks for systems, rooms and Do It Yourself (DIY) help. FAQ. |

i've got a toroid in a power conditioner that occasionally vibrates, and suspect that some mods i can do to in include:
1) change mounting bolt to brass
2) remove steel top plate & replace w/ wood (or other non-magnetic material)
3) damp vibrations by isolating toroid from mounting base
here's my dilemma: i'm not fond of trying over & over to find the right answer, so would appreciate feedback on what would be the ideal material to isolate the toroid from the base.
blue tack?
chunks of MDF?
norsonex (dead / sad) balls? (i've a lot of them)?
brass nuts?
rubber grommets?
any other suggestions or feedback welcome.

- There should not be significant heat from the diodes. - Al Sekela 15:08:38 01/11/08 (0)
- Could be caused from DC offset on the power line. - jea48 20:08:40 01/10/08 (0)
