High Voltage Transformer Test One

Hot damn! Lovely sparks! Guess it is ZVS driven by the sound? What core did you use, or is it an air cored one like a SSTC?

Thanks :) Going back to basics with this one, it's just a spark gap connected to a neon sign transformer. And, yup, air cored. I may end up making a Tesla Coil out of it. Not sure yet.

gristc So basically it is a poormans SGTC without the resonant cap. Dead simple but very impressive spark show! 10cm are no joke. Just a bit less than my 32V SSTC I made a year ago. (getting around 12-14cm streamers, they actually burn you pretty well :D)
