A Very Simple design to run a Car Ignition coil.
"Directly from a 110 VAC line".


I Designed this just as a Simple HV System.

Definately Makes a STRONG HV Arc.
And May Cause Electrical Interference to other electronic items.

MOST IMPORTANT:
MAKE ABSOLUTE SURE You GROUND THE COIL
to a "GOOD EARTH GROUND".


NOTE: THIS IS THE YELLOW WIRE IN MY PICTURE.


WARNING: FAILURE TO DO SO:
WILL CAUSE THE CASE OF THE COIL TO ALSO BE ELECTRIFIED!


This Spark Can Be Very DANGEROUS, So BE CAREFUL.

NOTE You MUST have a LOAD on the High Voltage Output.
With NO LOAD, you have a High Risk to "Damage the Ignition Coil".

** Either a Spark Gap or a High Resistive Load is suitable. **

A 220 or 240 VAC @ 50 Hz Version is Definately Possible.
Sorry but I don't have that AC power source to test one out.

Lastly, If you Build this circuit, Its at your own Risk.
I Will Not accept responsibility for what you do!
