I have acquired what appears to be a kit battery eliminator that was commercially produced, for 90 volts "B" and adustable A voltage. The bridge rectifier and fuse and both blown, what should I use as a replacment bridge rectifer in terms of current and reverse voltage? The transformer is rated up to 2 amps that supplies the a supply. The B comes right off the line.

I would go to Radio Shack and get their 276-1185 bridge rectirier. It is $3.29 and is 25 Amps at 50 Volts. They have several other bridge rectifiers that are smaller and cheaper if the 1185 won't fit.

The above is assuming the bridge is in the "A" supply. For the "B" I would use 3 Amp. 200 Volt diodes and make my own bridge.

Why use only 200 volt diodes? 600 or 1000 volt ones cost almost the same and will survive line surges and spikes that will blow the lower voltage types.

OK OK

I shudda said "or higher" PRV
