Re: Flyback Driver PCBs



Original poster: Brett Miller <brmtesla2-at-yahoo-dot-com> 

Jim,

I would like to buy one for sure.  I have been wanting
to build a high powered flyback driver for quite some
time now, but unfortunately the project has suffered
from being farther down the priority chain than my
many other projects.  Having a PC board that I would
merely have to populate and solder would help motivate
me to do it sooner.  This is really exciting.  I'm
sure others would like to have such a thing as well.
Count me in for 1 board please!

-Brett
