REVEREND TRANSFORMERS

The small size, low weight, and construction of our innovative transformers is unusual, and understandably confusing to some people. Here is an explanation of the construction to provide a better understanding of the unique design:

The traditional metal outer cover is replaced with a protective heavy vinyl casing, which is moisture and rust resistant. Electrical shielding is applied underneath the vinyl, and the coil/core assembly is secured to the baseplate with a high-tensile steel hose clamp. I personally requested this clamp because hose clamps are specifically designed to withstand extreme amounts of pressure without failing.

Eliminating the large metal outer cover results in a transformer that is about 20% smaller and lighter than normal. However, the electrical performance has not been compromised, as we use a full size iron core. Our transformers are efficient, have a wide frequency response, and are reliable. Over the last 4 years we've used approx. 4000 transformers of this same basic design, and we've only had 2 electrical failures, both a result of extreme abuse/misuse.
