I'm gone.
Curiously, the only component that has ever gone *BANG* on me of its own accord was a Power Inspired AG1500 regenerator.
Go figure.
.
For example a L7806CV Linear Voltage Regulator
This device will accept a voltage range of 11v to 35v input for a 6v 1.5A output.
Problem is, as the input voltage rises the device will get warmer and will need a heat sink.
Also the rectifier diodes require 0.6v.
So ideally the input needs to be about 3 or 4 volts higher than the required output voltage.
The secondary windings on the pictured transformer show voltages 2x15v, 8v, 7v and another I can't make out.
So adding 10% gives 2x16.5v, 8.8v and 7.7v, I'm pretty sure the voltage regs' can handle that.
Happy Days
It’s closer to 10%
220 + 22 = 242
So not really, no
Thanks for the clarification Duncan
