power supply to convert from 32 volt DC
#14

So far so good, the heaters are good on all of the tubes and....amazingly...both dial light bulbs still light (with my test light)! I think I lucked out that nobody fried this at 120 volts or certainly the tubes and bulbs would be toast. .

I received the big capacitor today...just waiting on the transformer and bridge rectifier. Should have those before the end of the week. My biggest concern now is...will that 32 volt vibrator still work. That could potentially be a dealbreaker, as I know 6 and 12 volt vibrators are fairly common but 32 volt are pretty scarce. I may post a want ad on here for one just in case.
