Dave,

I'm not sure how this will affect the input current. My guess would
be it doesnt but i'm not sure. I mean there is no current flowing
due to them being out of phase.

The current would be limited by whatever tap has the lower rating.


Thomas,

I'm not sure what voltage your looking for but if you plan on
running geckos then 220 will not be an option. 110 is be redily
available so its no big deal. The DC voltage obtained is roughly
1.41 (root 2) times the AC voltage.
