[time-nuts] 4 KV Power Supply Recommendations

[J. L. Trantham]

Is that mahogany?

Has anyone ever used 'Starboard', a marine plastic?  It looks like it might
be a candidate for HV construction.  Also 'Plexiglas'?

Pictures of my breadboard microwave transformer power supply diode and
resistor strings covered in heat shrink but don't touch as it is not good at
HV. One end of resistor string is used to sample voltage. Don't have the
parts for the voltage doubler yet. A metal cage and more insolation is
needed.

Joe,

Use Linear Technology's SwitcherCAD to simulate the operation of the
multiplier. It is a great tool, and it is free, and you will learn a
valuable skill.

And it is a lot safer than breadboarding a 4kV supply.
