I know I'm not that smart for this but I'm gonna build an ignition coil driver like this one I can't really see that great and I am wondering if anybody has schematics for this or something like it. I don't wanna mess it up and be killed. And for added safety I am wondering how to make some kind of current limiting device so I don't get killed. I would rather not see alot of links to solid state drivers or driver that run of a dimmer switch and a MO cap.
thanks Sam

I'm a bit confused on what, exactly you want to accomplish. The title of your thread is MOT, suggesting you want to work with Microwave Oven Transformers. However your post makes mention of ignition coils. I suspect the image that was removed might be the missing piece of the puzzle. If you elaborate a bit, I'm sure we can help you get moving in the right direction.

I'm also extremely confused. You said that you want schematics, but you don't want links to solid state drivers or dimmer-based designs? There are many, many ways to drive an ignition coil. All that you need is a rapidly switched circuit that can handle some punishment from back EMF.

Yes! Thank you Peter. I Want to run an ignition coil of of the MOT.
OK?
The ignition coil is a 2 in one, its not oil filled and its of my sisters corsica. its got 2 inputs and 2 HV outputs that are refrenced to ground but when you arc them togeather you get 2 times the voltage. thus I call it 2 in one coil.
