Don Smith Device Project Part 37: 150 watts of Halogen Bulbs Mostly Lit :)

schematic: imageshack.us (exact values may vary, and forgot the 100nf cap on L2 in schematic) Re-tuned the system for about 70khz so that when i get my high freq driver back working i should beat this performance 🙂 here there are 3 x 50watt 12v bulbs L1 is 1.075mH with 5nF L2 is 52uH total with 100nF the bulbs were fluctuating between mostly and fully lit, but input here was only about 96 watts. im still overvolting the bulbs, so i really cant turn it up too much, i would blow high voltage thru the fragile 36v series… WITH current 🙂
