yea, well i actuelly have been shooked by very very high voltages,
Like when i was useing my plasma generator. IT made 40,000 volts
before i burnt the transformer out. That thing shocked me i dont
know how many times. at least 20. ANd ive been shocked by the wall
outlet about 3 times. 120 and 240. and now i have a neon sign
transformer that goes up to 12,000 volts and 30 ma. by itself it
makes a 2 inch arch, Very nice.
Im really into high voltage expermints as well as tubes. I have
collected about 20 10kv peak volatage caps at 1.3 nanoferrets to
make a voltage multiplier. SO yes ive had alotta experience with
high voltage circuits.
WHat is a leathel amount of voltage and amps?
Oh and i was wondering can you use voltage multipliers to power tube
circuits. reason i ask is that i looked at a schematic that
originally was From piaa and it was a tube/solidstate preamp. it ran
a 12ax7 one for seach channel and they were voltage starvedd but
just to get t he 50 or volts to run them from the 12 volt heater and
ic suppy they used a 5 stage voltage muliplier.
so i wias wondering is that really a good idea to use voltage
multipliers when you dont have a proper transfomer
Thanks alot
