My transformer is simply doubling the frequency, doubling the pulses with those two diodes i showed in the other thread... i read this pulses like right after the diodes arrows and ground. I'm having problems with the diodes i burned more than 10 high quality diodes..

I had to use the earth ground cause there were sparks coming back into the primary.. i made a spark gap in parallel with each resonant coil...

when the diode opens the sound of the transformer changes and it makes no longer the unipolar pulses...

Yea to get the pulses to be identical to Stan's drawing, you need to pulse at 20Hz. This will give you the three 120Hz pulses and then a gate.

Hi Don,

Thanks for the video. Looks great!
Question:
How high are your peaks in Vpp?
Meaning, you rectifiy the 20VAC to certain unregulated DC voltage. Are your VPP at the cell higher then the basic unregulated dc peaks?

Ps.
I also have a cat....meaning, she has me as hear servant....
