20KV Power Supply

This first power supply will provide enough Volts to create a plasma. To go for fusion is the next phase of the project. I will then need a 30KV PSU from somewhere.

The carcass, made from plywood.

A selection of components. Mostly from Justins stash.

The power resisters R1 - R4 mounted together.

More resisters paralleled up to create R5 cheaply.

Partially completed assembly with the transformer, capacitors and power resisters.

The completed assembly.

The switch from 10k to 20k was my own invention. Works great. (sparks a little bit though)
