Jameco Valuepro 112512.-R Power Transformer, 24 VAC 2 Amp 117 VAC Wire Leads

The Jameco Valuepro Power Transformer, 24 VAC 2 Amp, has received mixed reviews from customers. On one hand, some customers have found the transformer to be reliable and efficient, working perfectly for their home projects. They have praised its compact size and normal temperature operation. However, other customers have faced difficulties with the product. Some have received transformers with no labels or documentation, making it difficult to determine the primary and secondary wires. The lack of instructions and identifying information in the box has also been a point of frustration for some customers. Additionally, there have been reports of transformers overheating and emitting a burning smell when operated at higher amperage than rated. Despite the mixed reviews, the transformer performs well under the specified 24V 2A rating. It is important to properly install the transformer to avoid damaging it, and some customers have added an inline fuse on the secondary side for added protection. Overall, the Jameco Valuepro Power Transformer has both satisfied and dissatisfied customers. It may be a suitable option for those who require a compact transformer for low-amp applications, but caution should be exercised when operating at higher amperages.
