I got a few tests done. I really like this circuit. It should charge up capacitors really fast.

That was a beautiful blue spark and very solid looking.

@xee2
awesome..
looks like you made a efficient ozone generator..
question here ??   does the transistor need a heat sink on 12 volts..
i haven't had time to play with since last video..

When I drop the resistor to 50 ohms the circuit draws 1.36 amps at 12 volts - and the transistor still does not get hot without a heat sink. Amazing circuit. However, so far I have only run the circuit for a few minutes at a time since I am using batteries and do not want to drain them.

i built this circuit to use higher power input.. and you just comfirmed my goal..
to do it without building heat..
i have a device that i am trying to make a more efficient circuit for and this was the circuit to replace the jt run transformer that blows transistors with heatsinks..
if all goes well you all will see the more simple and efficient device i being working on back before i hurt myself..

excellent work xee2..
