They both draw some current with no load. The toasted one actually draws less than the better looking one, about 100 ma vs 160 ma so I'm guessing that either a small amount is normal or both have issues. I'll leave the nicer looking one run for a while to see if it heats up. Anybody have a known good power transformer to see if some primary current draw unloaded at 120 vac is normal?
