Re: Question on Variac lighting



Original poster: "D.C. Cox" <resonance@xxxxxxxxxx>


Your sparkgap is set too wide or your power xmfr does not have enough power to recharge the cap fast enough. You need more mA of drive current or set your sparkgap closer together. If using nsts just add another xmfr in parallel and you will have enough current to run it smoothly.
