>Yes, this discussion is now boring and again we are facing a situation when
>kids throw sand at each other. And when I, as a bystander, tried to join
>the other day, I am ignored. Again. This reflector is the place where the
>big gurus discuss theoretical problems that are no practical problems at
>all. After all, how many times have we had a diode break down in real life?
>The problem was solved years ago and why now spill milk on it?
>
>And BOB: Do you not get a voltage drop in each diode? The more diodes you
>use the bigger the voltage drop??

>>Rich....Boring isn't the word for it.

>>Gimminee f#$%ing Christmas Are you guys for real? Do you have any ideas
>>what 1N5408s cost when bought in quantity? One year ago I purchased 2 bags
>>of 100 1N5408s for 40 bucks at RF Parts ! That's 20 cents a piece. With 200
>>diodes and a few pieces of perf board I can make 3 full wave bridge
>>rectifiers with 10Kv on a leg and still have still have 80 diodes left over
>>for various projects. If you connect that to a transformer with a secondary
>>voltage of 3500 volts the PIV of an individual leg is 4900 volts. That
>>leaves you with a safety factor of 100% ! Worried about transients? Slap
>>an MOV on the primary!
>>
>>Get A Clue !

>>better yet
