A bit over a year ago i decided to build a lab psu since the one I have now only delivers 300mA but I never really finished the project. However I have now decide to give it another go now that I'm a bit more experienced in electronics. I have also decided I want 2 channels for +/-.
I already have a 2x12 100 VA transfomer but I would like to be able to switch between 12 and 24V AC and not have to deal with ridiculous amounts of heat. But I cant find a four secondary transformer anywhere or one with 2 center tapped secondaries.
So my question is would there be any downsides to using one transformer per channel as long as they are identical?
