edit..

I was using this guide, specifically method 1, example 3, where there is only AC current, no DC:

it just occurred to me my numbers may be off bc i was using transformer primary peak-peak voltage to find current instead of peak-peak voltage drop across the choke at 50kHz. which would make results more reasonable.
