Would it be possible to modifie or rewind one or a few of those small transfromers that can be found radios and such to give out about 25-30kv? at a low current. could they be powered from pluses from an arangment of a 555 timer? or I am losing my time? | ||

Power transformers would be very lossy when used with pulses from a timer IC. You would be better off winding your own coil, or using a flashlamp transformer. | ||

See the ARRL Handbook for information on coil winding and cores. | ||

It's a book. You can find it in a library or a book store. |
