This time I will present you an interesting way to use the PCB board from an old CFL bulb to make some useful electronic devices. As we know, these bulbs are no longer in use, so we can buy from the remaining stock for a very low price. I bought 24 watt CFL bulb for less than $2.
I noticed the genius idea these days at the Zafer Yildiz channel and immediately decided to make some kind of device with a CFL bulb electronic board. I actually expanded the project, and also made a Power Supply and a High Voltage Source.
SAFETY NOTE: Please do not attempt to recreate the experiments shown on this video unless you are familiar with High Voltage Safety Techniques! Direct Current even above 60V maybe lethal, even when the AC supply voltage has been disconnected due to the stored energy in the capacitors.
