Dave,
I pulled the flyback from the board. It dropped it from my workbench
when my cat jumped up. I just noticed the magnetic core is now
cracked. Good thing it was only $2.00.
The reason I didn't use the Horz circuit was that I was just trying
to experiment with a different supply.

Bob,
Use the Horz driver circuitry that was in the original monitor as
its tuned
to the correct freq. The transformer works best at that freq and
will have
the proper driving signal. Caution though as these devices are not
toys by
any means. I used to work on TVs and have the most respect for these
circuits. There is the smell of corona and there is the smell of
burned
flesh.
A jacobs ladder is always fun to experiment. I would recommend
reading the
caution posted on the inside of the monitor when it comes to
working with
these voltages.

I picked up an old 14" monitor at Goodwill for $2.00. It
worked. I
removed the flyback transformer for HV experimentation.
I hooked up a 9 volt battery on the input and setup a small gap
between the HV output and hv return. I though a momentary 9v
pulse
would produce an observeable spark on the output. No such luck.
Any suggests?
Bob
