My First attempt at SSG

Congratulations Aliman for diving in and just doing it!

With that many turns and that size wire, you may not have problems if you don't have a neon. It is when you're using 18 awg power windings and you have lots of them that the transistors can pop like popcorn from pressure explosions if you don't have neons.

Thank you for the info. My next setup I plan on using 18 AWG for the power wire , then should my trigger wire be 21 AWG ?

In my first post I stated a method I used to calculate the rotor RPM, was that method correct ?

Hi Aaron, thanks for your help , I have a question.

If I build a trifilar cap pulser energizer, must the slave coils be the same gauge as the power wires in the Master coil

Thanks in advance
