In Reply to: RE: Modifying the Lighting Transformer posted by Triode_Kingdom on December 07, 2016 at 14:59:34
Well, my fluke read it as 32.5Khz without modifications, and that is what deaf said he got on his and it is the same transformer I have according to him. So I have been using that as the scope was giving me readings that were over 120Khz, and I did not think that was likely. I do not understand why the readings would go down when I took off windings though.

Triode, what if he reversed the winding direction? Does it matter?
Reversing either winding driving the transistors should prevent oscillation. Reversing the winding that's in series with the output transformer will prevent the oscillator from self-starting. Incidentally, I previously referred to that as a feedback winding, but I believe it's actually the primary of T1.

I am pretty sure I put it back just like it was because I only took one loop off each wire. Also, when I checked it after putting it back together it was reading about 30 volts. However, since we know yours is working properly, I will make mine look just like yours tomorrow.
