Have a search online for the caps make sure they are rated to 100v or higher you might be able to find them cheaper is you buy say 4700uf and then double them up Rapid also does the transformer as well 25 - 0 - 25v and wire the coil in series to make 50V ..CliveQuote:

Apparently the AM882 are discontinued and replaced with the EM806 which is'' the same or better specification as the AM8802 but a newer product'' . any thoughts on this would be helpful .
this is the psu coil Standard Range Toroidal Transformers- CM0750225- 750VA 230v to 2x25v delivery next friday 20th.

Yes they are slightly better and are affectively same drive just with updated software which allows slightly smoother running motors and less motor heating.Quote:

You don't need 750Va and could getaway with 625Va easily. Going large on the Va will just cause you more hassle with inrush and the extra current it provides you won't use or need.!Quote:

The 625 VA delivers 11.90 amps. i hope my calcs are correct! is there a way around the in rush of current?
Yes Don't turn it ON. . . :joker:Quote:

To be honest I very much doubt you'll ever run 5 Motors at same time that pull full amps at same time so I'd still go with 625Va and 12A.
