Running the ZVS driver from 36 Volts DC supply with IRFP250 mosfets. Current varies between 5 and 7 Ampères. Arc gap is 6 millimeters. Break down in oil does occur. Carbon traces are formed in the mineral oil and it blackens during the process. The oil becomes more conductive and more arcs form at a lower Voltage threshold.
