[pure-silver] Re: Devere 108 trouble

I don't understand any of this! When you say the main power is not meant to be repeatedly switched on and off, what do you mean? I don't see any alternative. It came with the timer on it, so I assume it must be a devere timer. You flip a switch to the far left and that turns on the fan. The next switch turns on the light for focusing. Then you turn that off and push a button to use the timer.

Hi Shannon,
Contemporary De Vere color enlargers have a separate transformer/stabilizer unit i.e. a transtab. The color head plugs into the transtab, as does the timer. The transtab then plugs into the wall. The transtab has two toggle switches. One turns on power. When the power is on, so is the fan. The other would light up the head, although this is usually taken care of by the timer. Hence it's possible that the main power is on, but the head switch is off. This would cause the fan to run but the head not to light up. You do not want to plug the power cord from the transtab into a timer. * The main power is not meant to be repeatedly switched on and off! *As I said before, there a dedicated timer outlet on the transtab unit. You really should use a De Vere timer, or an RH designs timer with special plugs for the transtab. ======================================================================= ====================================== To unsubscribe from this list, go to www.freelists.org and logon to your account (the same e-mail address and password you set-up when you subscribed,) and unsubscribe from there.
