I dont think anyone wants it... it was right next to a mounted brand new LED traffic light so I guess they replaced it

> in comes the Jew.
The word income refers to that phrase. It was originally "Hurry up and get your gold or in come the Jews." They shortened it to income.

Its not energy efficient. You could pull the guts out and re-do it with full Led package. Clean and paint and put in your bedroom. This way a girl (the new girl) will no when you are ready re colour of light.

I made it up. But it's good enough to be believable.

Well the good old lick fingers and use as a test probe to give yourself a quick shocking answer. Just looking at the structure - Two bobbins for high isolation - Its probably step down only. Got a car light bulb handy to use as ..is it more then 12 volts or less and by how much.

·quack (OP) — 12.9 years ago, 7 minutes later, 1 hour after the original post[T] [B] #315,076

@previous (Syntax )
its 230v primary n 12v secondary... I have a traffic light light bulb to test lol.

the wires on one side r way thicker than on the other side so I guess the thicker ones have to be primary. I tried all possible combinations but it keeps blowing my fuse. guess that thing is dead and thats probably the reason they replaced that thing in the first place...

Scale from photo makes it appear smaller then wot I wood expect to find inside a traffic signal. So I take it you took only parts of the signal and that is why terminals were disconnected?

Powering up the 12 volt lights wood be easy if you have an old computer power supply handy with 12 volts dc. YOU COULD just use 230 to power up the lights for a quick flash.

Could get a huge voltage drop from a plastic bucket filled with salt water and coat hanger wires etc. You can even get free Hydrogen gas in the process.

Hard shell or soft shell?

·Syntax 12.9 years ago, 8 minutes later, 1 hour after the original post[T] [B] #315,089

Bad pic cause any serious Taco place only serves Soft Shell. I was trying to vary photos and probably never used that one. I must admit on occasion I do like the crunch of the hard shell but NO PLACE uses the good stuff to Stuff them

OUT of here!!
