ac buzzing noises
Hey guys, I'm only a photographer, so I think I need your expertise here.
I just bought a **broken link removed** and I'm intending to get my portable studio lights to work off of it.
My lights require 120V AC at 60Hz, and this box is supplying 120V AC, but I have no idea at what frequency.
When I plug anything else like lamps or heaters in, they work fine, but when I plug this (very expensive!) studio
light in, it works, but buzzes loudly.
What is going on here?
Added after 10 minutes:
Wait, I just found out it does output at 60hz. But it's not 120 Volts, it's 115. Does that matter?
How could that cause the buzzing?
