Kapanadze Cousin - DALLY FREE ENERGY

[magpwr]

   Just got my snubber parts order, so I'll install them soon. Any way, this is what it looks like, so far.

hi,

Please don't forget the MOV's which should be rated just below the fast response protection diode(Assume 600volts) used to protect the source drain of mosfet(~600volts...650volts).

Around 470volts rated for MOV.

Without Mov the external "protection diode" will likely be destroyed upon turning on Kacher at the certain frequency but good news is expensive mosfet won't be damaged.

   What is a MOV?   
   I am now following the Stalker diagram that I posted previously, for the snubbers. But I'll be using the MUR1560  instead of the MUR460. Other than that, the rest of the snubbed components are the same.

hi,

MOV is Metal-oxide varistor.

Why use a MOV it's an energy waster and what you drain (waste) overheats the system and wastes your free energy (assuming you ever get any with this concoction)   just use two fast diodes from the collectors a good cap and a bleed resistor back into the system somewhere like the EHT driver supply possibly.

There is also another way of using push-pull energy init's own drive by winding the drive transformer in a more efficient way.

Every dissipative snubber is an energy waster.
It snubs electric energy by converting it to heat.

just use two fast diode...

Diodes in snubbers waste energy, too.
That waste is proportional to their forward voltage drop, so Synchronous rectifiers waste the least energy, Schottky diodes waste more, Silicon diodes - even more, Silicon Carbide diodes - much more, and Zener diodes - the most.
...and MOVs get used up.
