Hi, John- Since I am the fellow who provides the pre wound toroids, I would like to offer that I do include a note with my K2 sets instructing the builder not to pull the leads too tightly while installing K2-T2 . Its design is a little unusual insofar that the toroid is spaced slightly up off of the PCB, its green secondary leads hidden under the core. I tin most parts up to or onto the core itself, and with this part care must be taken not to distort how the lengthy green leads are positioned since this could result in pulling some enamel into the PCB.
