TInselKoil 20: Even Fuller Power -- 1 KiloWatt DC Input

Bypassing the input transformer and hooking the DC power supply bridge rectifier directly to the mains. Through a line filter of course. The ammeter inline with the DC power indicates the current draw by the MOSFET x-bridge, most of which is going on into the resonator primary. The DC voltage is 171 V no-load; and with full corona it drops to about 150 V, if my meters are accurate. I have more confidence in the amperage reading, especially when the staccato mode is off.
So DC input for the power arc is about 165 v and 3 to 4 amps; the full steady corona sucks up 140 V and 7 or 8 amps.

Today I finally got a replacement set of IRFP252 mosfets installed; I remembered that I have these baby moon hubcaps left over from VDG work, so I ditched the toroid and the "capacity pot" as Rosemary called it, and fitted the hubcaps as the topload.

By theory, two things should happen: 1) resonant freq goes down; and 2) more voltage should build in the disruptive discharge mode, so longer sparks.

And so it does. It's beautiful and scary.

I pushed 1.5 kW today; the electrodes melt instantly.

You just had to be there.

BTW, Great channel.

Thx TK.

thanks, I hope you enjoy some of my other videos. Many are rather pedantic; you can safely skip many of the Ainslie (electric OU) and Mylow madness. My personal favorites are the alt.snakeoil reports.

Thanks! There are certainly many that make longer HV sparks, but this one seems to have the best power transfer capability that I have seen in a small tabletop unit.

It's running at 820 kHz give or take, depending on the toroid and the breakout lead and the ground terminal lengths.

I think when it makes full steady corona there's probably a lot of power radiated in RF. This week I plan to take it to the lab and check its radiated power, if I can dig out the right instruments from the mess.

300w flame, wow, a mighty flame for 300w.couldnt do that with a normal electri heater. thanks for showing

That's probably the best built SSTC I have ever seen! Great work.

What frequency?

1KW draw in corona (OU?)?
