[Amps] High voltage/wattage zeners

[Alex Eban]

.....connect a Zener from the collector to the base of a 2N3055 transistor,
heat sink it, and you have a 150W Zener diode!

Hi all,
  Can anyone steer me to a supplier of zener diodes in the 30 to 50 volt and
25 to 50 watt dissipation range. My Mouser catalogue seems to cut off at the
5 watt level?
