I think we have two MOT, it is to limit the current, but the current output of the trafo is 300mA, it is 1.2KVA, but even then I put two to be sure.
Thanks

Not Resist and tested my doubler today Using an MOT as CHOKE, the beginning was fairly, the arches appeared excellent, but after the third arc, gave a bloww, caps discharge violently in the output of the doubler.
After that BLOWW not stopped more than anything, was that see the smoke in CHOKE, isolation is broke.

You used one mot as the choke? I know that two mot's can handle twice the voltage. Hooking the one mot as the choke is like pushing 4 times the rated voltage through it,or using a 4 pack mot stack. If two are used it will be like a 2 pack mot stack for each mot. And from what the internet says no one,including me,has had a failure with two mot's.
WAIT! You do know that the chokes go AFTER the doubler,right? I cannot see them on that picture is why i ask...If you did not know,i will tell you right know(so i don't have to type later). The two mot's supplying the voltage is good and the doubler is good but after the positive output of te doubler is were the two chokes go.

well if you only have one mot powering it you only need one capacitor and one diode.unless you are using the circuit that has the smoothing cap and then it would take two caps. If you are using one mot as input and a doubler you should only need one choke because one mot choke can withstand 4000 volts easily.
