I do not have an isolation transformer or variac yet, not in the budget. I would imagine not all isolation transformers are the same and in the simpliest form my not filter but just isolate. Just using a dim bulb tester and meter for now, which reminds me I have a Kill a Watt meter at the cabin that would show me the load also when using the DBT.

The Y2 caps are very large and didn’t put them in for that reason so I will get some X1/Y2 caps.

Thanks for your replys.
