You have not said what drives you want to use as a lot of drive these day only need AC input ie just a toroidal
I've haven't said because I don't yet know I thought me saying the bit about making something that was over 'spec'ed' and that could work with a variety of choices would make that clear but I guess not and I'm sorry for misleading you. It would seem Desertboy in #14 has done exactly the sort of thing I was alluding to.
Anyway, I'm not going to ask any more questions until I've put more flesh on the bones, but that in itself is difficult if i don't know what I've got in mind is possible. I'm just trying to gather some underlying info and knowledge that means I don't end up wasting either my time or others in coming up with designs that don't have a hope of being good.
