Need some advice. I've read that the TOs are particularly sensitive to current inrush and benefit from having a thermistor added. I see two ways to approach that, 1) thermistor (I think a CL-90 ) in series with the 1 amp fuse on the hot side of the house voltage ( seen in red below) OR 2) in series with the R18 resistor on the DC side of the rectifier tube (where the green circle is). Any thoughts on this?
Thanks!!
