Hey everyone. What would be the easiest way to make an device which will spark high voltage and with relatively high current thought spark gap and still allow me to adjust the frequency of the spark between say 50Hz and up to at least 2000Hz?
I would want this device to have some power behind it, at least 20 watts. Voltage isn't very important but to have a spark I know I probably need at least 2Kv+. I can run this on 120v or 12v, its just an experiment so whatever is easier.
I was thinking maybe using a neon sign transformer to charge a cap, but high voltage rectifier isn't easy nor cheap. Than I though maybe get a car 12v neon light transformer since it works on DC, and output is DC pulsed which I think can directly charge my HV cap? And I'm guessing I could adjust the frequency by the size of the cap and/or by spark gap distance right?
Are there any other easier cheaper ways to do this?
