Title: 25" Wells Gardner k7401 Does it need an isolation transformer?
Post by: jtslade on May 26, 2013, 12:40:11 am

So the movers broke my svideo input on my 25 inch TV. I was interested in buying a NOS 25" Wells Gardner K4701 ...

Will it need an isolation transformer in order to run from the smart strip in my Neo Geo Mame cab?

Thank you for any help in this.

Your topic says K7401, (but your first post says K4701) so I assume you mean a K7400 series Wells Gardner chassis.  It does not require an isolation transformer.  I have a WG K7400 chassis and have connected it straight to the wall outlet and it worked with zero issues.  In fact, I have it currently set up with a TV tube I salvaged from a 25" TV and am going to install it into my MAME cabinet for just the fact that it requires no additional isolation transformer.   ;D
