The aforementioned have contributed financially to the continuing triumph of 4hv.org. They are deserving of my most heartfelt thanks.
My camera sucks on large scale, but I'm posting this pic in attempt to persuade people into _not_ using the 2N3055 as their driver.
I want to see pics as such taken by that camera.
... What kind of setup creates such an arc? I can see there's quite a few rounds in the primary atleast.
Thanks for the comments, those were pretty much the first pics I took of the arcs. But for the camera part, sorry to disappoint you all but as you can find out my camera isn't something to be called amazing. Sony Cybershot DSC-W1. The pics were even taken with the most basic automatic mode. :)

Hey, I still think it's a darn good camera. Heck, I can't focus on anything that is less than half a meter from my lens!
I like to power stuff directly from mains even at cost of hard switching. Some people also love to tune their transformers to resonance, although I don't see benefit in it.

The two most powerful drivers (which can supply more power than the flyback can take ) are the "zvs" and half/fullbridge drivers. Both have their advantages and disadvantages but I prefer the halfbridge driver.
