/sci/ Im trying to make a portable 60 hertz degausser but I need

use ohm's law (v=i*r), use the current that the inverter can supply continusly (i.e. less than the fuse value basically) and the voltage (120v) to calculate the resistance required across the output.
check the resitance per unit length of whatever wire you are making the coil from and calculate its minimum length based on resistance from above.

if the resistance is too low too much current will flow and fuse will blow.

also there are inductive elements of impedance but i don't want to blow your mind lets keep it simple.

So my degausser is a microwave transformer. Im using the primary coil pic related

Will changing the fuse to 30a fuse help? Strangely the inverter specs said it had a fast blow 10a fuse but inside there was a 15a fuse

a MOT is typically rated 1000W or more. your inverter is probably 75-150W, so you can see the obvious problem. use a smaller x-former.

Do you think I fried the inverter for good?

yes, with a probability index of 0.1293

Sure it will. Instead of blowing the fuse the current will blow the inverter!
Anyway, it sounds ds like the fuse blown was on the input 12V side? There often is some protection in inverters also but I don't know how fast those are...

Not sure if this will help, but i had to make a degouser for my hit CRT tv. I grabbed a long padle bit and duct tapped a few feidge magnets to it. Throw it ina corrded drill at warp speed and wave it around the tv.

There


Degoused.
