Drawing some arcs with the predecessor of my CapCharger 3000, which outputs 400 V at high power. The current is limited by two 220 ohm/5W resistors in series. The resistors get fried near the end of the video.

  • Do you broken your invertor ?

  • No, just burned the resistors I used to limit the current.

  • @Hanowair use light bulbs as resistor , they rae a lot better to limit current and won't burn unless overvolted

  • I Did a Miniature Of 13,8kv With two capacitors (400v 470uf) awesome video!

  • Lotsa current!

  • Cool, I just thougt so when arcing stopped.

    You can see my cap charger in my videos, it's only 34 watts powerful with 366 volt output xD

    I use it for gauss experiments.
