Wouldnt you have to find matched transformers (close in real voltage)?
What if the voltages are slightly different?
(ie: there may be variations in voltages of 12.6 V transformers)
Wouldn't one act as a sink and heat up if the voltages arent matched?
What is a good rule of thumb for the max diff in volts?

Where is Theremagoochymin's rule when you need it?
