TCML,

I put together Terry's strobe last night and had a
chance to try it out. Anyone with a sync gap and
twenty bucks should put one of these together:
it's a fabulous idea...

However, the pulse is kinda wide for 3600 rpm
motors. The moving electrodes appear as a blur
instead of appear as if they are frozen in time
(OK, I could split the difference of the blur, but...).
It'd be nice to couple this circuit with a xenon flash
to really round out the idea. 120 Hz operation would
be nice too. Anyone out there willing to give it a
try with me?...
