    Which Transformer

    Looking at buying the 3 axis pro kit with the steppers and everything else. The HobbyCNC page recommends 2 different transformers that can be used....the one from Allied and the one from MPJA. The Allied one is $60 and the MPJA one is $19. They both seem to have the same specs... 24VAC and 10A. Whats the difference? Is the Allied one worth $41 more than the MPJA one? TIA

    They both look roughly the same, the $60.00 one looks slightly better quality, but it is a bit high priced for a square laminated type, especially configuring in P&P.
