/diy/ - Do It Yourself

wow, didn't expect such a quick reply...

so far about 700mA at the minimum

I was thinking about a micro trafo but the problem is no isolation from the case, although it would provide enough to drive a voltage doubler...diodes and caps would be tough to find, it would all be custom components and very specialized which means big dollars.

don't want to be switchmode because i'm a snob and dont know shit about them to be frank.

the ridiculous thing is this tube has a transconductance of 55mA/V and u of 300. never heard of a beam triode before this but it's a neat tube, sure it will be a light show with all the electrons collecting on the glass like pic related. i might hook it up to my power supply and collect some characteristic curves to get an idea of linearity and the working relationship between electrodes but that "only" reaches 400VDC.

of course with tubes like kt88 or kt120 there really isn't a point but sometimes i like to do shit just because it would be fun.

i wonder about the sound though. probably won't be much different.

i also wonder about a primary to secondary short in the opt...that would not be cool.

it's pretty scary to fathom building this thing but it would be cool.
