RE: micro magnifier

Scott,


Alan Sharp made  a solid state magnifier using a ferrite cored
primary/secondary driving a tertiary coil about 5 years ago.

Take a look at http://members.aol.com/alansharp03/page2.htm

I don't (and neither does Alan) recommend using his driving method, but as a
proof of principle it was a very interesting design.

Cheers
  Derek
