I paid him by Paypal, without problems.
Maybe a typo or something wrong on your end?

Fiddy, did your maker give you a maximum voltage they could wind? or is it an insulation issue they calculate as the limiting factor?

I purchased two flybacks from Fiddy, fantastic they are. I have tried two drivers for them, a ZVS driver and a SMPSU driver.

Now for the question .... I want to use these to power a plasma tube similar to this one:

and I ask you, the experts (sadly I don't consider myself anything but an amateur) which one they would recommend I use.

I seem to be having problems with those links. Normally I can get round it, but not this time.

EDIT: Seems to be sorted now

Looks good Rod!

Try to keep the HV leads away from the core or it will arc over.

Very nice results Rod-on! Do you have a link for that SMPS driver? I've never seen one like that. I've used cheap electronic fluoro ballasts for flybacks before with good results though, but often the wattage is too low for optimal results and the frequency is fixed usually far from resonance.

I'd not use ZVS for a plasma display just for safety and prevention of envelope punch through.
