[TCML] Small 12 volt battery powered coil



Hi All,

I'm moving off the grid in the next month or so. No more plugging into the wall and pulling as much power as I need. Overall, I'm very happy about that, but now I need to learn more about making HV from low DC. Should be fun...

Anyone got a good design for a small TC, say 12" to 24" output that runs from 12VDC? I don't want to risk my inverters and generator, as if I blow them I have no way finacially these days to replace them. I'll have a fairly beefy battery bank. Simple is of course better. We will be talking short runs. I just can't imagine not having sparks to show folks when they come over for a solar powered hot tub.... :) I have some toobs, small to medium triodes. I'll go solid state if it isn't too expensive.

Thanks!
