Did you know, not all Toroids are created the same? They may look the same, but there is one big difference!
UPDATE: I’m sorry, in the video I was saying magnesium sink when it’s manganese zinc. thanks to fep Labs radio for pointing that out, sometimes doing videos early in the morning are a bit difficult RF Grade Toroid’s, and how to tell if you have one!
This quick, yet simple trick will help you understand if you have an RF Grade toroid made of Nickle Zinc.
