Congratulations Jim. Nice looking streamers.

Just one request, any chance of resizing/cropping/optomising your photos? At
1.5MB per picture the dialup-ers are going to be waiting ages (I have
broadband so it's not much of an issue for me).

Plus there seems to be something wrong with the video link

Regards,

Tom L.

Finnaly got it working, had to replace the MOSFETs with IGBTs and now it

works great,  spark length should be doubled when I remove some of the
primary windings.
Pictures!

A strange squealing can be heard in that video, probably the RF acting
upon
my digital camera...
