                             Power Resonator from RMCybernetics                    The Power Resonator CRO-1 is a compact self resonant drive circuit for LC loads such as Tesla Coils and Induction heaters. The device is ideal for simple experiments involving induction heating, resonance, or solid state Tesla coils. Only the circuit is included in this listing. Coils, wires etc are sold seperately The CRO-1 is a type of collector resonance oscillator circuit which will automatically drive reactive circuits at their resonant frequency. This is ideal for making a DIY Induction Heater or Solid State Tesla Coil.  This is designed to work with a wide range of coil sizes and operating frequencies to give maximum performance. The device to be resonated needs to consist of a coil with a center tap (see DIY Induction heater example above) and parallel capacitor bank. The circuit will automatically drive at resonance even if the resonant frequency changes such as when a metal object is placed inside an induction heater. When used with our Induction Coil Assembly, or Induction Coil KIT (for making your own custom coil) the circuit should draw around 4A from a 12V supply if there is no metal object within the coil. When adding something to be heated, the current will increase significantly and will vary with the size of the object and the material it is made from. If using the KIT version of the coil assembly, the amount of standby current will depend entirely on how you build it. THIS UNIT IS NOT A TOY. PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY OR YOU COULD DESTROY THE CIRCUIT WITHIN MINUTES. The example showing a small bolt heated to red hot is pushing the CRO-1 to its limits so you must take care if doing this. We will not accept returns if you break the circuit. All units are tested before shipping. Our transformer kit is a great partner for the CRO-1 as it allows for more flexibility on coil design. The power output can be modulated (for temperature control) using a PWM circuit such as our PWM-OCm or PWM-OCX Automatically resonates low impedance reactive circuits Wide supply voltage range (12V – 30V) ZVS (Zero Voltage Switching) Current up to 14A continuous*, 180A peak Modulation input High quality double layer PTH, 2oz Copper PCB Dimensions: L83 x W46 x H60 mm Example Applications Induction Heating DRSSTC (Solid State Tesla Coils) DC-AC Power Inverters Resonant Energy Experiments Wireless Power Transmission And more… Click here to download the CRO-1 Manual  FAQ: How hot can I get my metal part with the CRO-1? The temperature rise in the material depends on many factors such as what the material is, the size, shape, how quickly it looses heat to the surroundings, operating frequency, and the dimensions of the heating coil. We can not answer questions relating to specific heating projects as there are too many variables to consider. If you consider that using a 24V input and your system pulls 10A, Then there is potentially 240W of heating power in the system (ignoring losses). Can you make me a more powerful version? This unit is designed to allow for a low cost introduction to induction heating. It can not really be upgraded to handle more power apart from adding larger heatsinks or water cooling the transistors. We are working on a larger version which operates differently and allows for more power but it is a good while off. Check our newsletter or Facebook for updates.
