RE: Flyback Generators can you use them



Original poster: mileswaldron@xxxxxxxxxxx With some help from a friend (Peter) I got a flyback throwing about a 2 inch spark by driving it with a 2n3055 and a 555 timer from a 12 volt battery. I scabbed the flyback out of some old TV somewhere. Flybacks are cool! I still have a lot of work to do with that project, and I need to get all my facts in order before I proceed, but initial testing looks promising for making some kind of a TC tank.

Cheers,

Miles
