Hey Forest


Is this the, charge in parallel and discharge in series circuit you were looking for?  ;]

Marx Generator.

Im thinking maybe zener diodes can replace the spark gaps. Or maybe SIDACs.

Magluvin, go again to the same page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marx_generator
then scroll down to the "See also" subtitle. There you'll find the link to "Cocroft-Walton generator"; this is the only way to get there, impossible to get there independently. Probably there you'll find solution for your concerns.

Hey Forest

Why the deleted post?  Thats a Tito move.  ;]

Anyways, was thinking about why this circuit is useful.

The only thing I can think is that HV and less amps= eff

Ive known about voltage doublers/multipliers for a while. Just never thought of why high voltage.

Ive seen the diode doublers, but this was the first ive seen  where spark gaps were used. I suppose we could mix it up. ;]

One thing I might say, this is probably more eff than a transformer step up.

And the fig8   Is it caduceus coil? I watched some vids on Caduceus. It would seem that most definitions are spirals, starting small and getting larger. But these coils(as shown), have spiral along a tube.  The one thing I see with them(coil) is that the winding never follows along with another winding of the same coil, only crossings. Low self inductance between windings.
