Hi OP,
Sounds like your current unit has 2 separate features, and you may only need one:
- Voltage Regulator (causes the clicking)
- Step-up transformer ( outputs 2x the incoming V )
You can get a step-up transformer without the voltage regulation. Easy-peasy, but I would look at the voltage coming in first to ensure it's within the range you are comfortable with. Voltage regulators can be fusssy. For instance, if your voltage ranges from 115 to 125, you may have 3-4 clicks in between though the voltage is within spec.
OTOH, you may have brownouts or high voltage. Measure first, pick after. :)
