Keep in mind that an 80W LED bulb draws about 8W to deliver the same amount of lumens, compared to an incandescent bulb. Also keep in mind that the transformer magnetic field saturates when driven with a square wave, so there are significant energy spikes during transitions (overshoot/undershoot/ringing), so simple measuring equipment such as analog meters will read higher than actual values. Basically, you've made a cheap power inverter.
Nice results! Rick Friedrich actually refers to transformers as batteries!
I agree and thank you!

The meters are on the input and on the output not just on the output they will both have the same average
excellent video
Thanks for sharing
Anytime! Thanks for watching
Awesome man!!. Thanks a lot.
Anytime!
in the frequency domain: an infinite harmonic series of sine waves thru a transformer is just as awesome!
That's forsure lol
Thank you for sharing. Is this what some transformers on your ground did?
The transformer is on the positive leg
