The baby brother 5 amp Variac is pretty much finished. I noticed the new Voltage Knob is bigger than the original so I will attempt to restore the original knob. That big one came with the new Transformer. The only other thing is I don't like the old worn out AC socket. It's seen better days so I'll find one and replace it. Anyway, it works great and even if it was broke dick, it looks cool sitting there doing nothing. Now who can I talk into calling this guy in California so I can get the correct amp meter?

Thanks. It's kinda cool to get a chance to do some odds and ends.

So I bid on one of these units. My 168.88 bid was passed by quickly at the end of bidding to a tune of $255.01. So I cannot keep up with Perry.

Funny, my high bid was $250 and I didn't get it either.

Nice 10 amp unit just listed. It says the meter glass is cracked but it's been my experience that the adhesive has just come loose. Mine have been an easy fix.
