slayer exciter

Hi there, I built a slayer exciter circuit and it worked (circuit diagram in attachments). However, I wish to improve the design. One design flaw is that if I want to use a transistor that can handle more voltage, current, and power, the base needs more current to drive it. I saw a schematic...

I made a slayer exciter tesla coil couple of years ago and It worked pretty well. Still, I want something more powerful so I was planning to make a new secondary with 2000 windings and a more efficient driver circuit, but most sstc circuits are too complicated for me and sgtc is too dangerous...

Hello, I am currently trying to build a beefed up Slayer Exciter Circuit but I ran into a problem. The Transistor I wanted to use isn't easily availeble anymore and now I need a new one for the circuit. The old one was called "25K242". The new transistor should be a N-channel Mosfet with a...

i made this project but it is not working and the transistor is heating up very fast, i couldn't find anything regarding this specific project but as far as i understood i should maybe use another transistor, what do you suggest?
