Does anyone have some ideas/tips on getting 350-400VCD at maybe half an amp max?
My plan was to take wall current, step it up to 350ishVAC, then use 4 IN4007s to rectify it into DC. Question is, where would I get a transformer of this magnitude? I think it would be an interesting learning experience to wind my own, but I don't know how. All I know is that the ratio of the primary to seconday is the step up/down ratio. But why not just wind 1 wire, and then wind 3 wires on the secondary? That should give me 360VAC, right? So anyway, any help, or other ideas, would be helpful.
