Yes, it works!


Was there any doubt.


Give Arron big enough caps and he will start to take down incoming missiles :-)


Carl

Thanks for the wire info guys

Carl

Subadude.....

Where did you get the wire....it's not so easy to find.

Thanks
Carl

Arron......are you going to put that Jet in something, and fly it ?

Muchas gracias Flepa-SG

You can practice your english on me, anytime

Carl

Let the evolution continue, with vigour !
:universal:

Thanks Dog-One

I'll check that out.

What about a DC voltage multiplier?
I have heard that mosfets can be set up in a ladder arrangement to do this, eliminating transformers, variac's, mains,...

Be great if the cap could be just sitting there, charged, waiting for a spark to ride.

So.....how for instance...... could one get a mosfet to turn on when the other turns off and vice versa, both triggered by one signal? ( the points/hall effect/whatever )??

Carl

Nice neat craftmanship Dog-One.

Seems to me the cap charge which rides the ignition spark should be triggered by the conventional timing mechanism (eg points )

This synchronizes the cap discharge with the timing. Therefore...

Arron .......where is this latest info ...........this stuff has evolved since the package......is it on the forum?

Carl

BTW Arron, the package is well worth the 37 bucks.

Thanks
Carl

Min2oly.....

An inverter can and has been used to charge the cap.

A DC voltage multiplier would be the bee's knees

The mechanical relay is a weakness also.

Looking for help on both these...

Thanks Arron,

I may have not read all the info on the forum or missed a bit.

This is what I was looking for........

I think the setup to be applicable in a working application would need to...

Here are my questions........


My mosfet gets hot quite quickly.( Nte 2376 )
I am using a 50/50 duty cycle on my 555 .( maybe the cause )

I seem to be drawing about 4amps, to a standard...

Answering these questions for all to see is a great idea......Thanks
