I might suggest making your own transformer. There are plenty of
forms available from different manufacturers, and by custom-winding
your own, you can play with both output voltage and current.

If you want some more info on "how-to" or on some of the projects
I've done, just email me and let me know. I'll be glad to help.
(By the way, I don't come in to read the news often, so please
email me a note instead of posting. I have no problems receiving
mail (as far as I know), but a lot of my outgoing mail gets bounced
back to me.)
