Microwave oven collectors?

        FIrstly a word of warning. A microwave oven is by far the most
dangerous
        thing you're ever likely to work on. The power supply can provide
about
        4kV at a significant fraction of an amp. This will kill you if you
touch
        it. Not 'might kill you', but 'will kill you'.

        It is a _lot_ more dangerous than the EHT supply in a monitor or TV,
for
        example.

It doesn't hurt as much as a 27KV CRT EHT, or the 5KV (20A) sub mod supply.

Lee.
