My plan was to take the Dalbani catalog, find a relatively cheap (and
readily available) HVT and recreate the WG6100 HV supply based on it.
Basically go overkill on everything-- if it costs $100 and never breaks I
prefer it over $40 and you fix it a few times a year...
The problem for me is that I know very little about HV design and have no
clue where to find specs on the transformers or how to set stuff up like
the "trigger" transformer that's driven from the 555 circuit, etc.
Any ideas?
It seems like a $15 flyback and another $20 in parts should be able to make
a good HV supply though... Suppose a little care is required in the PCB
fabrication to keep arcing under control, etc.
