Hello! I am currently having a hard time choosing what will be my Tank capacitor. I am currently using a ZVS Driver with a Flyback transformer type 4B.
My questions are:
1) Can I use a bucket capacitor for the tank capacitor? I know that it isn't efficient when compared to MMCs but I would gladly choose lower cost low efficiency side vs higher cost high efficiency side as long as it is safe.
2) Is it possible to measure the voltage rating of a bucket capacitor? If possible, how?
Hoping for answers to my questions. Thanks! (I will update the post with the picture of the driver when I will have a good connection)
