My plasma globe (actually it's a tall red spiral, but same idea) died.
It runs for about 2 minutes, then suddenly goes off. The AC wall wart
is tested as ok, the DC convertor is tested as ok. But the part that
makes the high voltage from the 15V DC is sealed in that wax stuff
(for
heat dissipation?) so I can't possibly repair it. Where can I get a
replacement supply? Or is it easy enough to make one using parts that
would cost less than just buying a new globe?

Have you checked the return path ??

I would if I knew where it was.

So can you melt out the "wax" and take a decko at the "works" ??

I'm sorry, I only speak English.

Being cunnilingual has its advantages.
