Bob, your e-mail is bouncing ...

I just tried to send this direct with the hp-23 schematic.


I just looked at the HP-23 schematic.

Is that a voltage tripler, from 268 to 820 no load?

What if it were changed to a doubler?


>> You can build a 650-700 volt HV supply with 120/240 volt isolation

>> 240 * 1.414 = 340
>> 340 * 2 = 680
>>
>> You can buy these transformers from Allied, Mouser, and DigiKey.
>>
>> They are a viable solution to the problem.
