[QUOTE="Einstein, post: 92097, member: 288"] I got an update: I got 3 new breadboards to try out and see if my old breadboards could be contributing to some of the weird stuff going on. Turns out I was right to suspect my old breadboards. Apparently I got some open circuit connections occurring in the old breadboards. So that's why the circuits don't work when I transfer over to PC board. You would think I would suspect that before 5 failures had occurred. But some things you just take for granted. Anyway I got the breadboards off eBay for 6 dollars. Much better than the robber baron price of 30 dollars plus tax at Radio Shack. With a new breadboard I was able to rapidly prototype a circuit that works both on the breadboard and PC board. So now I have a stable circuit to power my Tesla coil in on-off-on-off mode. Of course not all the mice have been captured. The coil was outputting a +/-32 volt field. Now all I can get is +/-16 volt field. I did start redoing all the power connections using heavier wire. And making sure the path to power was equally shared. But the wire I was using was speaker wire. So I don't know if having wires running parallel can double an output voltage. But it was part of the equation. Also when I had the +/-32 volt output, I had that weird phenomena where my hand had to be close to the power connection to get the coil running. Now that is no longer required. Also at present the Tesla coil is operating at an anomaly point. When I move my hand toward the coil while in operation, the output voltage increases up to a point and then decreases. At the turn around point the output electrode of the Tesla coil starts to emit numerous tiny wispy sparks. It looks like a tiny whirlwind while it's happening. So there is more to this field capacitance phenomena than is presently known about. This is something that needs further investigating. But for right now I have stable operation. So I can move ahead and investigate any new phenomena that may occur when I turn on a rotating Tesla coil field. Here is the schematic that I am presently working with that gives easy start-up with on-off-on-off operation. [IMG]http://s26.postimg.org/99k8knqtl/TM_Pulse_SSTC.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
