Hi all,

I need some help working-out my power needs.

I'm looking to hook up my scope to an existing 12v garden light transformer that used to power my deck lights but not anymore.

My rig will be controlled and powered by a Stellarmate Pro which is 12v 10amp. The current transformer I have is rated at 12v 105va max. So it's max output amperage is 8.75amps, which is below what the Stellarmate requires (everything else will be powered from the Stellarmate so all I need is 10amps). All my attached equipment comes in under 10amps.

Give the current transformer is 8.5 amps I'm assuming I'll need a bigger transformer to cover the amperage?

I have found a bigger transformer that is rated at 200va mx, which means it will output at 16amps which will more than cover my needs.

Just looking for a sanity check to make sure I'm thinking about this properly.
