"do you think a flywheel supply would be problematic with MV rectifiers? I know the general recommendation is to run them in to a L-critical choke. .035H seems like it might not do the trick and its typically followed by 10-20uF."Tried a MV rectifier, Type 83, with a "flywheel" filter and it will work but the service life of the rectifier was not the best.
Got about 1 year of intermittent use before the MV stopped working properly.
You are better off not wasting a good MV rectifier.
The 5U4G or SS diodes + snubber is a better option.
DF was warning everyone about mercury from rectifiers somehow getting outside the glass bulb and creating a health hazard.
How this could happen, no idea.
