forget every, what’s our ability to mass produce small transformers here? I mean they are everywhere so I’m guessing we have a fair amount of ability to produce them, but I have no idea how long it would take to replace a large percentage of the existing ones.

this is why having the large and midsize ones may not do people much good if their neighborhood ones can’t be replaced.

Like most industries, we meet current demand with some flexibility. But while the industry might produce ~5% of the current inventory on a yearly basis, they don't have the equipment, materials or labor for an order of magnitude increase. What industry does?

this is why having the large and midsize ones may not do people much good if their neighborhood ones can’t be replaced.

And reality is a lot more than transformers will need replacing.
