Based on Steve Ward's design (http://stevehv.4hv.org/SSTC5.htm), this is my SSTC finally working (after the driver blew up before). Taking it a step at a time now, I've not tried 240V on the primary yet... maybe will invest in a Variac first. Clip shows 30V RMS (actually reading more like 45V) on the primary
