Hello,
People may start to think, that my only problems in life are all related to transformers..
I disassembled a microwave oven and got the transformer. Since I am not big fan of arch welding, and I don't need 2100 vac output, I thought of rewinding it to something more useful. Has anyone done it? Maybe share some experience please? Is there any obvious downsides? (except the weight, of course).
Now, if I can trust the internet, then 1.65mm² (15 gauge for American fellows) can hold approx 15 Amps with wire length of ~7.5m. (Or maybe I have I have gotten this completely wrong)
