Inverter for 20W/40W Fluorescent Lamp

Inverter for 20W/40W Fluorescent Lamp

It is a low-cost inverter circuit for 20W or 40W fluorescent lamp. Even so essentially the most effective is to work with a 40 W tube (or two 20 watt tubes in series). This is a circuit you are able to put collectively from junk box components or assemble from a kit. It really is very easy to construct and needs no printed circuit board.

The transformer is hand-wound on a ferrite rod (from an old transistor radio) along with the winding wire could be salvaged from an old transformer. We're purposely maintaining expenses down to display how cheaply it could be place collectively. Based in your stock of components, the price could array from $3.00 to about $15.00 and in the event the wires in the transformer are soldered towards the ends from the tube(s), it is possible to make a free-standing light that may be set-up within the garden to illuminate a dark place without the need of the worry of operating 240V wiring. The price of powering the circuit is about 22W and this can generate the identical light output like a 60W globe.

The kit is available for this circuit, then it should be work and already tested.

About Inverter
An inverter is an power electronic device that converts direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC); the converted AC can be at any required voltage and frequency with the use of appropriate transformers, switching, and control circuits. Solid-state inverters have no moving parts and are used in a wide range of applications, from small switching power supplies in computers, to large electric utility high-voltage direct current applications that transport bulk power. Inverters are usually used to supply AC power from DC sources such as solar panels or batteries. It will be useful for emergency electric source
