IGBT sstc setup and sparks

my igbt sstc finaly in 2 cases
tl494 oscillator, ucc37322/1 gdt driver and a gt60m301 igbt halfbridge
length of the streame3rs is about 12cm
input voltage is ~80V

Nice, i like te idea of putting everything inside a couple of nice cases. It detunes pretty bad when you put your hand near it? you could fix this by using feedback instead of a fixed frequency oscillator.

jeah the detuning is realy bad -.-

this was just a fun projekt made of parts laying around :P

if i would use feedback i would need a bridge rectifier, a big elecrolyt capacitor an an interrupter

the next projekt will be a big drsstc (after a half finished 230V sstc) so there will be feedback ;P

@happyfox711 SGTC ?? Spark Gap Tesla coil and RSGTC and SRSGTC syncronous Rotary spark gap tesla coil.

@CoolDudeClem your detuning the coil meening the high point will shift to a diffrent place.

Why does it stop sparking when you put your hand near it?

NICE EXPERIMENT. But what about the 'term' SSTC - where the hell does it come from. Its so stupid it really irritates me. OF COURSE A TESLA COIL IS SOLID STATE. Have you ever seen a coil with moving parts ??? Whats next - SSIC - solid state ice cubes or SSRF solid state rock formations...? Im only asking. It only sounds like some amateur made it up to sound professional. But when you think about what it means..Riding horsemen on horsebacks

why does the spark constantly direct in the left direction ?.. seems to be a mother in law detection capability ;-)
