Generators / Solid State AVR on an ST-3 Head - Any need for it ?
« on: May 08, 2022, 11:34:00 PM »
These voltage regulators are available all over EBay and Amazon for anywhere between $10 and $30.
Are they any good?
Are they even necessary?
I would think that sine wave conditioning would be a better product to push for the ST heads.
In any case, If any users found a benefit from installing a solid state AVR on an ST heat, please pipe in.
I have an ST-3 and I'm wondering if I should add an AVR ?
By the way ... what currenty controls the voltage on my ST head ? just the engine rpm?
