I set it up as above and it appears to be working fine but after
running for 1/2 an hour or so the transformer gets very hot. I have
kept this under control with a couple of fans but I am wondering if it
is damaging to the transformer running it like this? What could I do to
get the heat down other than adding more fans? Would replacing the
magnetic shunts stop it heating up or does it need some form of current
limiting?
