New Teres Direct Drive Motor Available as Option

Lew, while browsing one of my father's old EE textbooks from the early 50s, I read that a block of iron placed on top of a transformer improves coupling between the magnetic fields. This is how how a VPI brick is constructed. I don't know about the Skakti stones.

My Verus motor arrived a week ago and I have yet to set it up. I didn't realize that I would need a strobe disc and light in order to do the set up. Which strobe disc and light should I order?

The manual has a link for a down loadable strobe disk. Any florescent light will do the trick. Easy if you have a florescent lights in the room. Otherwise a florescent bulb in a regular lamp will also do.

Or, if you want to get fancy, the best strobe/disc I know of is sold by KAB. Worth the reasonable cost, IMO.

I own the KAB strobe and it is very nice. It is also more accurate than the fluorescent light bulb. The fluorescent light bulb turns on and off approximately 60 or 50 times per second depending on where you live. However, the frequency is never exactly 60Hz or 50Hz, though it is usually close. The KAB strobe, since it runs on batteries and not mains, is more accurate.
