I haven't made any other changes than what is shown in my book /
webpage.
The passive current limiting technique using the smaller primary wire
seemed to do the trick.
Keep in mind this is running at 3% duty cycle (100Hz PRF, 300us
pulsewidth)
I'm sure if i increased the duty cycle significantly that reliability
would surely
go down. But from a visual standpoint, the reduced duty cycle has
little effect.
