My First LARGE Slayer Exciter. Running smoothly.
Details:-
Power supply:- 24VDC
Transistor:- TIP3055
Resistor:- 39K
Diode:- 1N4148
Capacitor:- 1nF
Primary turns:- 5
Secondary turns:- ~1000 (probably more than that, didn't count lol. The secondary was hand-wound; took 3 hours to complete! Completely rewarding... see the pictures.)
The secondary produces 1cm long plasma when sharp needle is placed over the secondary. Lights CFLs 30cm far from the secondary. I was totally surpised/shocked when it lit the CFLs for the first time, on my first try! That was with BC548 transistor. It died after 10 seconds or so on 9VDC.
This coil and the ghostly lighting of CFLs has become very popular among my family and friends! They all looked at it like "WHA DDA!" the first time I showed it to them.
I am uploading a video of it. Will post the link later.
Thanks everybody here! love...
