Hi all,

I ran across this item on ebay and was wondering if
anyone could offer a good description of it :
<http://cgi.ebay.com/KIRKHOF-F4490W625W-WELDER-TRANSFORMER_W0QQitemZ200099067349QQihZ010QQcategoryZ11774QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem>http://cgi.ebay.com/KIRKHOF-F4490W625W-WELDER-TRANSFORMER_W0QQitemZ200099067349QQihZ010QQcategoryZ11774QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
I'm assuming that it is some type of industrial welder
transformer, as the description states. It is rated at
230 volts @ 69 amps and I'm thinking that this would
make for one heck of a pig coil ballast. However, there
is also wording on the label about motor rpms and ball
bearings? So is this a transformer or a motor? It would
nice if this 210 lb. chunk could be used as a pig ballast
as this seller is only located about 50 miles from me,
which means that I could go and pick it up instead of
having to pay those expensive freight charges.

Thanks in advance for your comments,
David
