RE: Transformer/Voltage Doubler/Damper Diode Questions

Charlie,

You really should use SS diodes in a doubler, as huge stack caps. work well. However, you can use dampers after the stack, strictly for delaying B+ rise. TANSTAAFL applies and you can safely draw only 175 mA. from the 700 mA. winding, when working into a doubler.
