Captain Tsubasa CR unit and transformer recommendation in uk

[keluar]

Hi everyone, I bought the CR captain tsubasa pachinko by sensei R&D off auction site.
Stuoidlt, i plugged the 24v cable into my step down (220-110v) and it seems it blew the stepdown fuse (connect) to mains(240v). The pachinko 20A fuse seems intact and the 110v fuse seems ok as well.


I now noted i need a 110-24v transformer but i cant find any in UK. Do you all have some recommendations for the transformer to buy in uk20240927_150506.jpg

Thank you in advance

Does make more sense to use a 240-24v transformer. I get mine from Farnell. They will also have 110-12/24v as well

Wow. Life saver. It will work on my pachinko? Do i need to modify it

Any link?

No idea yet. I'm at work. However I can't give any advice/links till you can tell me the va rating of the machine. I expect it to be between 200 to 250. Look on the back on the circuit board covers its normally printed on one of them.

according to the picture in this auction listing its rated at 240va

These 2 are suitable. Note the voltage as wiring isn't just 2 wires in/out.
Also the 300va ones are under half the price of the 250va ones.

if you want to go nuts and power 2 machines

Check to see if they come with the monting plate and rubber discs.

20240927_170617.jpglooks like 240va.i have bought this one suggestsd by the member takethecastle57. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/256475439....c101506.m1851
Would it still be ok?
The link and comment you send just went above my head. Do i have to rewire?
I would like to get just 1 pachinko version. Which one would you suggest and thanks in advance.

That ebay one says its 41 watt. which is way to small.

The ones I use like in my links can be wired different ways to get different voltages. It depends on how you join the wires. Its a bit like batteries can either be joined in series to increase the voltage. or parrallel to increase the power.

As for gauge.

240va is 10A at 24volts. so standard 13A mains flex should be fine.

are you able to show me how it should be wired? and which of your link i should be getting then?
