hello,

After reflection, and the first success at 170w, I will increase the power to reduce the exposure time that seems too long.

I will increase the voltage of the cathode, in order to have more penetrating and more energetic rays,
the first test was at 20 kv dc, I go to 40 kv dc.

Because of the high price, I continue to make the dump in order to find the necessary material to build a robust chassis, I hesitate to add a berylium window in order to block the energy "soft" rays and to improve the beam quality for photography.

my priority is safety, so here are the measuring instruments that I want:

- kv meter, and ampermeter for the cathode
-voltmeter and ampermeter for anticathode
- dosimeter (a geiger counter is not reliable)
