Re: PSU for Fusor
Jake,
Your supply seems adequate for fusion. Good luck with the bidding. I would also wait for some other members to weigh in before bidding; however, because they might have better suggestions for your first power supply. Also power requirements (voltage and amperage) are documented in the faq sections of high voltage, you might want to read those first.
All the best,
~Alex C.

Re: PSU for Fusor
Thanks for replying. I have a question about another power supply. Does anyone know whether this one would be suitable?

Re: PSU for Fusor
Particularly the 'fusor power' and 'vacuum' forums are getting chocked up with these ephemeral links to ebay stodge by newbs. I really think this should be stamped on because it makes those forums virtually unsearchable. The search function with the new platform is bad enough, but is getting increasingly tricky with this clutter being allowed into the main forums.

Re: PSU for Fusor
Chris is right. We can't be newbies guides to selecting power supplies! The FAQs give detailed info on what you must have to do fusion and to make a demo fusor. If the e-bay supply doesn't meet those criteria then it is crap! End of statement.
The power supply referenced for $550.00 is crap and if offered to me for $40.00, I would not even consider it!.... there!
Read the FAQs and query the seller, This seller put up a clear label indicating 30kv @ 0.3ma (absolute, worthless garbage)

Re: PSU for Fusor
Has anyone given any thought to making a board section where we newbs can simply run rampant, posting links to our hearts content while having more experienced (and patient) fusioneers checking in every so often to nudge us in the right direction?
It is a great act of cleverness to be able to conceal one's being clever.

Re: PSU for Fusor
Some mention has been put forward related to this but it was voted down. Old boys would never go to a free ranging forum to try and guide folks going wild with no oversight. We figured it would just devolve in time to some sort of free for all of flaming and word salads. Something we don't want associated with this site which is a serious, self-directed, fusion doer's site.
