About This Product
Having AC and DC from one unit means a single supply can run rectifier and induction experiments as well as the usual DC circuit practicals. It is used in secondary and vocational physics labs in place of batteries and separate transformers. The Battery Eliminator AC/DC can be supplied on export terms to Albania, Papua New Guinea, Luxembourg, Belgium, Ghana and Venezuela.
