RE: Flyback Generators can you use them

Hey Kyle,

sounds possible if you rectify the output of your flyback circuit in 
order to charge your primary cap with DC since one cycle of the 
flyback's output current (if it's the old kind of flyback which 
outputs AC) will not last long enough to give your primary cap time 
to charge. With DC it gets charged to a bit higher voltage with every 
output cycle from the flyback until finally the spark gap breaks 
down. Since the flyback only affects the charging, the rest is just 
like in any coil driven by a mains transformer. Someone from this 
list has tried this with electronic driver circuits intended for use 
with fluorescent lamps rather than with flybacks and it seemed to 
work although power throughput possibly won't be too high (from what 
I've heard flybacks have little output current). If your flyback 
doesn't have a built-in rectifier (diode-split configuration) you 
need to use fast diodes since flybacks normally have rather high 
self-resonant frequencies. The flyback itself can be driven using 
push-pull converters with feedback. There are many schematics out 
there showing driver circuits for flyback transformers. Just search 
for "flyback".

Regards, Q.

Hey would it be possible to slap a DC to AC convertor on a flyback 
generator and possible be able to rule out the transformer(s) altogther?

Cheers,

Kyle
