Hi,
I would like to put together a power supply using my surplus toroid transformers.. I have 2 of these. They are 120V primary, 88 V Center tapped (44V) 15A , with a second secondary of 12V.

I want to keep things general so I can power 4 G320 Geckos. Should I use 1 or 2 of these transformers in my supply.. these are HEAVY units.. any suggestions? Can anyone suggest what size rectifier and Caps I should use?

The original Toroids are center tapped with only 1 wire .. I have carefully peeled back the outer plastic insulation around the secondary wires and see that there are 4 copper wires soldered to the single center tap cable coming out of the transformer.. Should I seperate the secondary at the tap point to produce two separate secondaries of 44 V? If so, how should I proceed? Two separate rectifiers and caps (1 for each of the new separate secondaries?).. is there a better way?

A lot of questions for you guys... hope someone can help!
thanks, Jim
