NO. you are exactly correct. I have 3 Gecko's and want to have the ability to run them with a power supply. at 60% of rated current, they only need 12.6 amps, and that assumes the Z is in full speed motion a concurrently with the X and Y. Seems like a true 10 amps would be more than enough. The MPJA transformers are $18.00 each and to serial and parallel them I could get 11 amps with 4 units. This does offer the possibility of 24 volts, 36 volts and 48 volts out of the secondary so that is pretty neat. not required, but neat. Any idea where to get a larger single transformer at a better price ?
