The Thyratron and Using a 2D21 Thyratron to Move Some Current
In this episode, we take a look at a pretty unique little tube, the Thyratron. It’s surprisingly difficult to drive power hungry loads from vacuum tubes, like a halogen bulb, but Thyratron’s can move a lot more current due to their unique construction. Thanks for watching! Here’s an excellent read on Thyratrons: https://ir.library.oregonstate.edu/co...
