dude, your insane trying to build a 6Kw. lamp supply from scratch,
those lamps blow if ya sneeze.
I know I just blew one trying to build a 2 kW version. I have one
left.

contact bruce @ contact @ second source lasers do com, he has two
eski lamp supplies in stock. BTW the series 6 pins and two connector
bodies you asked for shipped yesterday.

Thanks for getting those out, Steve !!

and OF COURSE I'm insane.. even more so than you think because I need 8KW !!
(7mm ID bore needing 195-205 volts !!)

However -- the design is progressing -- I've got a model up and running that
(without current regulation) stabilizes at a very smooth 48 amps into the
tube (presuming 5 ohms tube resistance) after startup... its got a bit more
ripple voltage than I would like, and its spiking the AC input hard, but at
least I got the soft start and main current path worked out

having a real problem with the current sense -- trying to use the switch
model to trigger when the ISense voltage passes a preset threshold, but I
must have it modeled wrong some how because it is not switching when the
tube current spikes. (I know -- its a kludge, but I'm too lazy to add in the
full pwm driver until I got everything else close to working as intended)
I'll prolly see what I can do about putting at least a comparator in and see
if that helps
