Oh, I am not a qualified solder jockey, but what I can say is, just because you don't need an EO, doesn't mean you can just do what ever you want, as I suspect you are trying to get me to say.

Further, both transponders put out 250w.

Watts are a function of voltage and amperage, so a 14 volt DC system in most aircraft, to make 250w require roughly 17.85 amps. Doesn't matter what box is...
