I have several of the Dahl transformers.

None have ever failed electrically or mechanically.

Best in class product.

Does anyone know if anyone has made a play to purchase them?

 Since you mention it, Jerry.  I'd love to hear just what his complaint is,
even if sent by private e mail, I have never heard of anyone that went away
unsatisfied.
