Nice write up. Did you ever get around to making the wand? |
| Dan_CA:
Yes, I did make a wand and it works well and I use it often. It also works on a newer PS2E-01 supply that senses when the wand is disconnected. I did not post any construction details because it was fairly complicated and requires a lathe and machinist skills. Here is a picture of the completed wand. |

That's great, Dan. This is probably the first "recorded" fully diy wand - details/pics would be very helpful. I guess the tip plugs in into a SMB straight connector inside the wand? Other posts elsewhere suggest the capacitor is 270pf - so you used a 180pf in parallel with a 22uH? |
| Dan_CA:
Yes I used a 180pf in parallel with a 22uH as explained above. There is no SMB connector and I do not believe that the Metcal tips mate to SMB. |

Several viewers have noticed that some of my pictures have become missing or are in the wrong place. This happened after the forum went down last year. I don't have the time to fix this. Here are the missing files. RF Board Schematic.pdf (34.7 kB - downloaded 235 times.) Metcal Red Board Schematic Final.pdf (55.18 kB - downloaded 176 times.) |
