alternate for gas discharge indicator
((fuck this blogger *editor is slow 2day . . . ))
so about :: i've made (now a total) 3 circuits that use active pre-load - all have failed due a different reasons
(i) using ~250V electrolytic capacitors in series with incandescent lamps -- the ´lytes exploded !!! (trivia) -- however it took them 1.5d (some 36h) to heat up -- later i just added more incandescents to fill the voltage gap
(ii) using ceramic capacitor before Russian Lim.?700V full-bridge . . . that actually has a std. leak - e.g. if [+][–] terminals are not connected the –[L]] –– [[~] Bridge [~]] –– [[]Load[]]––2 [[N] – connection provides enough AC for 25W incandescent as a Load to glow near it´s max brightness !!! --- everything worked correctly at nominal !!average!! values (measured by analog multimeter) but the LED and 1BJT failed after 1.5y (apx.13000h) ???
(iii) using 15nF as "200kΩ" pre-load to 60V neon lamp caused the neon´ to relatively fast dim down and collect eighter C or metal film to it´s inner surface causing more dimming (service apx.1500 + ? h) . . .
. . . so i replaced it with this ::
( it´d make sense to set at least 1 fuse close to [L] or (2-nd near [N]) terminal -- this circuit relies on 10A line protection -- i can't predict how warm the (250mW) 100 ohm limit´ll get in continuous op. and what results if it does heat up . . . ) Update/About -- (so far it does not give out any smoke) but one LED is brighter the other one -- is either the asymmetry of DB3 , a bad selection of capacitor values/ratios -- or a combination of both (some of it can be adjusted by discharge resistors , charge storage cap.-s) . . .

Rebuilt two transformers
There seems to be a dependency for 50Hz Sine transformers - such that the less ampere turns on secondary the less actual output power . . . no matter the copper diameter !
The TF.2 has 2-le - and the TF.1 has 3-ple in parallel secondary winding from 01..0.08mm wire - e.g. - a lot of amp.-turns.
so here what we got
and a figure
note :: for the TF.1 is shown L.1.Before some 29(H) and .After 45(H) -- there's another experiment listing the values for the original NiMH charger's TF as R.i = 1251(Ω) and L.i = 47.5(H) , R.ii.YR (yellow,red wire , center tapped , total) = 2.4(Ω) , 9.11(V) - & - R.ii.BB (blue,blue , total) = 54.3(Ω) , 28.8(V) - but there's no much other data - i guess the ~AC.peak! voltages were required at the time --- so the table has data for TF.1 from the more complete experiment . . .if we multiply the 29.3(H) with Pi/2 we get 46.1(H) -- so i guess there's a current measurement peculiarity involved -- as Z = U/I = U.AVG / I.AVG , I.AVG = I.MAX·(2/π) -- or -- the prev. more precise Z.correct = Z·(π/2) → L.i = 46.4(H) , L.ii.YR = [P.i=P.ii=U².x/Z.x] = 44.546(mH) -- !!! however it does not much affect the DC(direct current) test values that are compared here
The TF.2 has 2-le - and the TF.1 has 3-ple in parallel secondary winding from 01..0.08mm wire - e.g. - a lot of amp.-turns.
