Thanks, Bob.
That's sort of what I expected, (but didn't particularly want to hear.)
I'll re-jig the psu & give it what it wants. :)
Thanks again,
Mike

Hi
It's tough to know just how far off of 24 V they compensated the
oven. It's unlikely that they have a pre-regulaor on the heater. As
you drop the voltage, the oven gain will also decrease. It's safe to
bet that it will work at 24 +/- 10%. Past that - who knows... At 20%
low, the failure is unlikely to be catastrophic. The impact will
simply be a degradation in the temperature stability.

Many thanks to both of you.
Is it safe to assume that the oven has its own temperature control
system?
I ask, because I'd prefer to run it from approx. 20v instead of 24v.
With a controller (& a room-temperature environment) I'm hoping that
it would still be operating at its design temperature with a lower
voltage.
Comments?
