A mains transformer is that kinda that you find in all your electrical appliances..? eg Video machines, DVD players
etc.. The heavy goodie where the wire from the plug from the wall connects to
and drops the voltage down from 220V to 12 or 9..
Normal has a piece of plastic over the terminal warning you.. DANGER HIGH VOLTAGE..? << Funny how a person reads it and
still shocks? HAHA>>
