  considering the HV dangers involved with this, it's surprizing I didn't find a chart or texts [probably easier to follow than a 'plain' schematic would be] as to the wiring assignments of the weber spyder transformer.
  How hard would that be?
  easy enough considering every new person to try one has to do the work of figuring out what's what with HV...
  Is there a parts list for 'DB01' ?
  DB = diode bridge = four diodes per output >?
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diode_bridge
  Is there a page with the wiring assignments drawn for Teds Spyder transformer, showing the 120vac input and 9v and 11v outputs?
  Yes I could cypher and draw which are coils which are N/E, which are high and low resistance, then start hooking up and see what comes out...Do I know how much a schematic or chart with wiring assignments would be a great safety measure and huge help at this point ? Try to draw an accurate chart, then re-verify and test it...but it would seem this could simply be done, once, then repeated by newbies to it [like me].
  Looks good but became 'sketchy' at best when I actually recieved the transformer, which was advertised as having 'color coded wires'...I see the colored wires ok, but.. I don't see the code.

  I dug up for quite sometime..must have missed this [obviously]

  That'll probably help !
  Yupp I just can't read sometimes.
