Ho heeej, the neon bulb why you need that one ? and where do you place it, because i thought the little thing on my HV unit had no real pupose but lettting you know the thing is on. can it elemenaty those nasty ticks i have been having if they are running for few days ?

by the way you can get those itemsn exteme cheap i spended allot more

The neon bulb is connected in parralell with a small capacitor.Then it is placed between EHT supply and diapraghm. When current starts to flow , the capacitor begins to charge.It will continue to charge until neon bulb's threshold voltage is reached. It will then discharge and flash the bulb for a short time. So flashing rate indicates current flow. If the bulb flashes in around a second or more, everything is OK. If it does so very frequently or is on constantly , it indicates a leakage problem.
