    Fluxer Heaters, induction heaters for Dynavap

    I could make that supply work but not to 12v. What is important in a brick supply is that it doesn't keep trying to push power when it can't keep up. Not all supplies do that. I know my little laptop supplies do this because they are high quality engineered little bricks. If I stay within...

    Nothing like finding new nuances with the VC. Who'd have thought that would be possible with over 2000 pages of conversation. Is this 're-invented' maybe? A lost technique?

    Hey @FunkShui - Welcome to the new FC. What is the approximate full adjustment range lengthwise of the Omni condenser? I was just playing with this poor-mans version to give people an idea of what to expect. I was blown away. This could give rise to variable length stems :doh:

    The bore in the stainless is larger. It will bleed more air. I found it to be quite a bit more and haven't followed through. The reason I went to try Ti was from a DV recommendation noting the difference in ID. That is part of the Omni function. That is what this is mimicing very poorly...

    ..and I should clarify something I said. I said look at watts but the final determining factor is the required rating. You cannot use a 12v power brick that is under-powered to deliver less volts. That is abuse of the brick. You can use a brick designed to function within the range of the...

    In the case of insufficient power to blow the fuse, the power supply will take the grunt [See note below cool image below for clarification!]. It is already safety rated to fail on a short circuit. That is one of the test that gives it a CE rating. Some supplies, like mine, will go into a...

    Think in watts @Stark1 - Ideally the Flix has a range. For the full monty, you want what 120 watts? The variable brick is 12v @ 10 amps which means it will toast your cap mightily or it can gently bake the bread. But if a gentle baking is what you want, and you find yourself cooking at around...

    Good to hear you rained in the input range @mr_cfromcali . These will be awesome! You might double check that adding of voltages on capacitors... Capacitance adds in parallel.

    The Magic-Flight Box

    My whole venture into Flowering Quince stems -stems- from making draw tubes for the Launch Box. Worked great and I would not use anything else. Yes, wooden stems on a LB is much better than glass in my humble opinion. Throw away the acrylic tubes. They melt. The V3 PA is cool because they...

    DIY Induction Heater Builds and References

    Sorry for the lack of action over the last while. Got sidetracked a bit on other things. Today the 10 awg wire came in so a short length test is due for 7.2V operation. Really looking forward to see how this behaves. Also got my second meter. Update on the HalfPint. Been using the devil...

    Okay cool. Thanks for claifying that. You had my brain going towards another Amazon order :D Funny, 9 months ago I looked at the SJK heaters and they were running around $33 for a good deal. Now they're all over $50. Same with the ZVS modules; was $5.50 and now $8.50 and up. That is some...
