Hi
(Yes, it's the beginner section. But please don't tell me to be safe and scrap this project.)I finished this thing a few years ago. A flyback transformer from an old CRT-TV and a Halogen-lamp driver. Few milli-amps of course.
Yesterday I was experimenting with it again and thought: "Hm. Would be nice to know how good it really is."
I obviously don't have a meter that measures such high-voltages, or the amps attached to it. So, could you please help me out?
I wish to measure Volts and Amps - but! With almost no money involved! As less as possible.
It's kind of a research and experimentation project. No real use for that thing.
EDIT: Ups forgot to say that I got the 30-50kV from measuring the distance the arc can reach maximum. Roughly.
