Nice transformers vasil. Where did santa find them?
I had a flyback which looked exactly the same as the middle one in your picture, and it survived by far the highest voltage output of all my unrectified transformers. Arcs firing at 4+ cm and even some little streamers from the output like a very low power SSTC.

My new toy.
Hehe, I saw a similar one at Harbor freight before, Enjoy :)
edit as of 12/28/09 Well, My SSTC old base was being ripped apart, so I started a new base, for expansion use for future coils. Sadly, it isn't near done, and my uncle is leaving Tuesday...So, I made a scrap one out of knex..isn't too bad...

A hastily set up double slit experiment and some pictures of my coil running last week. Target is set at 5 feet to promote frequent ground strikes. Two videos of the coil:

Winter has been weird this year, its been really cold here for months but no snow. Until today that is. In the last 12 hours we went from bare ground to a snowdepth of 50 cm, and it is still snowing.
Season's greetings from me and my brother. 'Tis the season to be jolly.

Another of my sorta not-so-cool pics. *shruggs* I'm learning
Broadband 160W not quite 200W yet, heh.. actually this one is now a 0W amp for obvious reasons. I need to fiddle with the combiner transformers which is a bit of black magic, as you can tell by the board. The black magic is supposed to stay inside the parts!
I can get a solid 100W out of a pair and I really want 200W out of this quad, or new quad setup.
Note to self: 1. Perhaps 1/4W resistors are too small 2. Fuse Collector leads. 3. Overdriving with inductive loads seems to be a bad idea, but it sure is a hell of a shakedown!
