John,
Regarding your advice, I haven't change resistors yet, but, lack had it that I found a free 30A Schumaker Charger, that was blown, so I gutted it, and in doing so "beefed" up a lot of...

@Nick_Z
Nick,
I share your desire to put excitation together with high output and plan on doing some more experiments when I have more time this winter. It can be a bit of an obsessive (tweaking forever)...

12V exciter
@Nick_Z
To minimize transistor burnout on 12V, try using a finer gauge (thinner) primary. The thicker the wire on the primary, the higher the draw. You can also use a choke on the input.
cheers

Peter,
I don't actually believe one way or the other, and I made no comment, actually at all, so I find it a bit odd that you would know what I think... perhaps you thought I added the caption, when...

I did a second more conclusive, albeit still rather unscientific test of running the charger, under load. So, 20 watts of solar power, and 20 watts of load, simultaneously for 4 hours.
