Hi Jeg. It depends on what sort of switching speed you need, but a high speed, high voltage rated IGBT
with a suitable IGBT driver chip would probably work. You'd need to make sure you don't exceed the maximum
voltage rating for the IGBT when switching high voltages. IGBT's can be quite expensive however.
Maybe you could test with switching caps at around 300V or less or whatever with a suitable MOSFET first and see how that
works out. Hardware relays can switch at very low frequencies, but continuous switching will wear them out pretty fast.
Yes, there is certainly no shortage of chaos and confusion in these forums.
All the best...

P.S. Do you mean the object that I have put a red box around in the attached picture?
I think that may be a latching relay that works in conjunction with the power switch on the
top of one of the plastic gray boxes.

P.P.S. Or, I guess you probably mean this black object in the second attached picture from the other gray box?
Not sure what it is off hand. Maybe also a relay of some sort, also used in conjunction with the power switch
and the other relay? I think we had discussed before here and decided that both of these two objects are
probably relays used in switching the power on and off. Or is this second one a capacitor?

Void yess. The second photo is what i am talking about.

OK. I will follow your idea of using less voltage first. So i will make a classic mosfet switch but instead of a coil at drain side i will connect some bulbs. Is that all? any other drawbacks?

Hi Jeg. I am not sure how you intend to do your switching.
Are you going to try to implement coil shorting, or just drawing
current off the output capacitor in switched pulses? If you need fast
switching rise and fall times, you will want some sort of MOSFET driver to drive the MOSFET gate.
If you are doing coil shorting, then I think Ismail Aviso recommended paralleling several MOSFETS
to get a really low combined Drain to Source On resistance to act as the coil shorting switch.
All the best...

Thanks Void
I have a simple yoke core setup which charges a cap very fast. I intend to make a switch which will discharge this cap on some load. I have seen Aviso's coil shorting teqhnique but this is not what i'd like to test right now. I want some raw power through cap discharging. I think 50-100Hz is an adequate rate of discharging. But anyway tha discharging rate will be determined through testing!

The Grenade coil has any one really bothered to look at it and compare it with the working device ?  ie 48+48 then ccw 24 +24 and 12 +12 turns total 168 total turns, the problem here is out of 37.75 meters it has about 2 meters left over that should be wound on the inductor.

Also when adding the secondary winding 50 +50 it's a hell of a job getting it on in 2 layers, this also leaves a good 5 meters out of the 18,785 meters witch is half the wave length of the first. which should also be wound on the former and tuned to half the wave length, Any one else have this trouble ?

And another thing if you look at Wesley's device 'grenade' if we suppose the top winding is 12 turns then the 24 turn winding is over twice as wide and the remainder of the 48 turn coil is over 33 percent longer than the 12 and 24 turn winding combined see photo.  i am rrefering to the red section !
