Where to buy a plug in transformer

Argh ... nothing found for 14 volts. How about these?

16vac @ 20va:

All three are plug-in transformers for US receptacles. I have purchased from MPJA in the past; good results. Never ordered from AllTronics.

Digi-Key lists them, but show them as being a "Non-Stock" item. Call for details:

I used to have a link to another source of many wall-warts from when I was in college, but I don't find them now. I'll keep looking in my archives. Good luck.

Mouser has 15 V ones:

I've ordered from allelectronics many times - their stuff is decent but typically new surplus of some kind. Jameco also has a 14V wall wart (1A though)

Here 230->120 volt conversion transformers are sold in peak VA, but it is sold as if it were Watts (the same thing with UPS's). So a 100 "Watt" (VA) transformer is really good for 70Watts and only for a few microseconds. It's really only useable for about 50 Watts.

So my GUESS is that if really does output 14V at a maximum current of 1A, it's really better than a 20VA unit.

Thanks everyone for your answers.
