Hi Greg et al Gotcha I placed the charging inductor only on one side and use 100 1N5408 1kV 3A diodes in series for dequing. I can see no problems with placing a charging inductor in each leg but neither can I see a compelling reason to do it. FWIW my ring up inductor array is about 10 Hy (gapped MOT's of 2 in series and 2 of those in parallel) all glued onto a piece of 12mm thick phenolic using the old reliable brown wallboard adhesive My RF deck is decoupled from the DC supply with L section LP filters of 500 pF and 1mH chokes made from the ferrite E/I sections found in the frame O/P drive from old TV sets. Some suggest these filters should not be used as they create their own transients. No problems with destroying silicon with this overkill in the de quing. Silicon is so cheap that in all cases I use silicon overkill and no equalising R and C. Keep up the work Rgds Ted in NZ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <SNIP> _______________________________________________ Tesla mailing list Tesla@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.pupman.com/mailman/listinfo/tesla
