PLEASE NOTE: 1) The high voltage ground is found by slowly bringing the high voltage out near the pins. One will heavily arc to the HV out - that is the ground. 2) When using resistance to find your two coils, regardless of what I showed in my video - primary and feedback coils will both have very low resistance.
Thanks J! I’ve been trying to put together this build for a while but needed some better instruction on how to put it together in such an efficient and compact manner. Keep making great videos bro.
Thank you very much. I have tried applying oscillator circuits to one low resistance coil of a flyback transformer with no luck. Your video made me realize that I was missing the idea of having to use a second low resistance coil for feedback in the circuit.
I had an old flyback transformer I got from a plasma ball and I did not use this exact circuit but I used a slayer exciter circuit from my tesla coil, and wired the primary coil and secondary to random pins until I got a tiny TINY arc when I connected the output to ground. It wasn't much but I was able to dimly light neon bulbs and fluorescent bulbs. Stay energized! ⚡👍

@@mrunalshah2702 You might be able to find CRT/tube TVs for cheap or free, they all have flybacks in them. Usually they have a rounded screen (but newer ones don't) and are really deep compared to the screen (usually they are like squares)
Awesome little build! I built something similar to this a few years ago, and fed it from a variable output supply. This gave me the ability to vary the high voltage output. Though this probably wasn't the best way of accomplishing that, It works well enough for me.
Am I fucking retarded? Do I NEED this resistors for this to work? I'm just kinda hooking the thing to my power supply directly and it keeps getting warm before any arcs are formed
I'm using the same kinda flyback from a battery tv. But the pins 1 and 3 on the right side of core have 0.0 ohm (with connection) and 2and 4 have 0.3. 0.0 being lowest resistance I tried and it got warm with no buzz or arc. I'm lost with this device lmao
Nice and compact. I like it!!! Remember Volts Do Not Kill!!! Current Kills!!! Respect what electricity can do to you and it will be safer for yourself and those around you!!!!!
Thanks, I also have one flyback and was trying to find out the way to drive it thank you for providing me this amazing information. I am glad that I have subscribed you. Thanks
I really, really wish you explained how the circuit worked. That’s the key to making more people safe and willing to create on of these for themselves.
I remember building a circuit similar to this. Much bigger FBT and arcs. Be very careful around this circuit as it can give you nasty burns from the arc. They take some time to heal too. The best way to draw arcs is to terminate the HV Ground to an insulated philips screwdriver. Then draw it close to the HV Hot and the pointed end of the screwdriver makes a great breakout for the arc to form.
-Instead of trying to use the feedback and primary that's built in to the flyback, there's enough room on the ferrite core to wind a five turn primary and five turn feedback. The only thing you need to find on the flyback is the ground pin (easy enough if you removed it from a piece of equipment and can find ground on the original circuit).- Edit: I should have read the comments first before posting this.
Hello, I apologize for the late response. I didn't buy it, that's what confuses me. Basically, I made the power source with a different transistor, but it overheats and dies. That's the thing, in the video he mentions a different one, but reading the transistor it's a different one.
its a nice build i build it myself and its awesome i drive the circuit from a 12 volt backup accumulator for a alarm siren system and it works just fine
The moment I saw this video I was like "I NEED TO TRY THIS". Especially since I had a flyback transformer laying around. I jumped out of bed and went to the store for components. Took me a little while to find proper coils on my transformer and I had to use KD502 transistor instead of 2N3055 but low and behold, it works :D Super cool!
@@estebanchristinogallardo5991 Nope. I have a 12V PSU, probably for some old type of laptop. I bought a proper connector and soldered it to the perfboard. Anyway if you wanna do this project yourself it would be a good practice to limit the current on the primary as much as possible. I used Jay's circuit and after maybe 1 hour of playing around my primary overheated and shorted out. Now I'm out of flyback transformers :C
It probably happened because Jay's transformer worked fine on current limited by this 240Ohm resistance or I just overdone it and maybe you shouldn't keep the circuit running for too long.
There are so many different version of high voltage high frequency circuits. can you do a video explaining different types of circuits and when to use what?
a usb air purifier and a metal object work to crash manny badly protected electronics such as plastic laptops, phones and things like mouses and keyboards.
Awsome vid as always but you should have put a capacitor (matching with the frequency of the transformer) so they would oscillate and also to remove the dc going trough the primary to get longer arcs due to resonance and im not sure but i think that would also help to heat up the transistor much slower
I built a similar circuit only using 2 transistors. The circuit you have needs a resistor on the emitter to prevent thermal runaway. to prevent arcing you should use a shield to protect the rest of the circuit. Also high voltage putty helps.
smh mate thats literally the simplest fixed bias switching circuit at this point just add emitter resistor to every switching circuit why do u think fixed bias exist, why not just make everything emitter bias smh no u dont add resistor to prevent thermal runaway, u use the damn heatsink, there is literally only 1 transistor there also dont make shit harder for urself, u have urself to blame for overcomplicating shit when the flyback transformer work no more because of that resistor
Great project, but is if OK to neglect the polarity of the primary coil (with respect to the feedback coil)? Also, why not find the output ground pin by resistance as well? Though it should be considerably higher than the two input resistances. Anyway, neat project, and any reference or another video as to how the oscillator works would be appreciated.
Nice! This is basically a souped up version of the small plasma lighter circuit. The output voltage is high frequency high voltage AC because of the self-oscillation of the primary side caused by interaction between the feedback winding and the transistor. The output would be suitable for presenting to the input of a voltage multiplier to get very high voltage DC at the top of the multiplier. Edited to add, it appears that flyback transformers like the one used for this project have rectifier diodes in the secondary so the output would be DC and so NOT suitable for voltage multiplier projects. You want the output to be high frequency AC to feed into a voltage multiplier.
Im so confused on what transistor to use i have zero experience and im trying to see if any transistors from the CRT tv will work but its so confusing please help
I recomend taking all the transistors you have off the board, then loading up all the comments beneath this video then ctrl f and search "transistor" then compare the transistors you got from the tv against the ones mentioned in the comments.
Hello Mr. Plasma. I just got my power supply working! So excited! I was about to toss it in the bin, but decided not to and instead figure out the problem. Turns out I had the bjt flipped and connected to the wrong windings. Cheers brohiem!
I need to learn so much Thanks a lot for your help I don't know many things like what is feedback point and etc But now i know i don't know many things so i am gonna learn about it And i will be back after a hour uwu
I finally found the exact same flyback transformer, and was able to salvage a bit more from the tv, so will be working on building up one of these HV supplies in the near future
Honestly; I kinda doubt that power supply can output ~20kV; that illusion was most likely from the sharp edges on the screw and wire when pulling arcs off it. I tested my power supply (very similar to yours); it has 6,6kV output at 12V input; 10,5kV output at 19V input. I measured this with a 90 microamp analog meter and a 111,12 megaohm resistor. The arc jumped 1,7cm at 10,5kV, then the voltage dropped to 1,5kV while the arc was going. This was caused by sharp points on the wires. 12-15kV might be possible, but that would really push the limits of a flyback that small. (Just my opinion). If anyone wants to ask me something about this, do so by all means.
That's probably true. You can see people on youtube measure the distance between two pointy electrodes. That's not at all a good way to measure the voltage. You can use spark gaps to measure the voltage (with pretty big errors). But you need to use the proper electrodes (there are standards for this). There are Schwaiger factors for correcting inhomogeneous e-fields. There are also corrections for gas pressure and humidity. If you measure a point electrode to a plane there is a polarity difference. AC is easier to measure than DC. There's quite a bit that goes into high voltage engineering.
02:33 this is a problem for basically all flyback transformers and measuring resistance to find primary rarely works. Ive tested this on around 20 different flyback transformers and an 17 of them i got 0.7-0.9 ohms across multiple pins. In fact, i never got any pair of pins that had over 1 ohm. For example: pins 2 and 3 were 0.9 ohms, 4 and 6 were 0.9 ohms 8 and 1 were 0.7 ohms and so on. Its trial and error. Pins 2 and 3 were the pins that worked most of the time for me.
Thanks, i love your videos, i Just found the 2n3055 high power, that with the metalic boddy... And all the flybacks i have are from old tube tvs, can't wait to build, and of cource, safety in first place, Sorry for my poor english 😂
Hi! I was able to create this work! really thankful for your explanation. Just one CLAIM tho. In the video you say that to find the feedback and primary coil we need to check the resistance, the higher resistance is the feedback coil. But this statement is wrong: the primary coil has more windings, therefore the primary coil has higher resistance. I had to test this myself since it wasn't working until I flipped the connections. for the rest dope video bro, really really dope! Amazing
Glad you were able to build! I've found depending on the transformer, their primary coils have a thicker gauge of wire and have lower resistance, and the feedback have thinner wire, but less turns. It seems to be a flop depending on model of transformer. Really glad you got it working though, and congrats.
Im twelve and this helped me sooo much thanks. and dont worry ive played with mots so i have a lot of experience in hv and i also have those aliexpress 400kv stun gun generators.The microwave oven transformers dont work for too long and its scary to turn it on but now im totaly relaxed i sometimes even forget my transformer on🤣

Glad you were able to build! I've found depending on the transformer, their primary coils have a thicker gauge of wire and have lower resistance, and the feedback have thinner wire, but less turns. It seems to be a flop depending on model of transformer. Really glad you got it working though, and congrats.
@@PlasmaChannel oh okay then, supercool. yeah it took me a while to understand how the hell it worked, but now i have it! thank you!!
Your project is very interesting love you form India
As an electrical engineering student. I appreciate your videos because I learn a lot in a way that doesn't feel like studying. Thanks dude!
Wow! Thats a cute little power supply!
And pretty powerful. A good several mA
Good explanation of things u have used in the video
Thank you so much
This is great! I'm certainly going to build it 🔥🔥
Have fun!
@@PlasmaChannel Definitely! 🤗💪💪
Thanks to that nice project hoping that someday this pasma would help greatly
Im twelve and this helped me sooo much thanks. and dont worry ive played with mots so i have a lot of experience in hv and i also have those aliexpress 400kv stun gun generators.The microwave oven transformers dont work for too long and its scary to turn it on but now im totaly relaxed i sometimes even forget my transformer on🤣
Brilliant!! I would love to see this as a kit for school kids!!!
Only if it's for High School or College kids
