Ŀ I had to repair mine
again recently,
so I made a note
of the circuit.

It uses a standard E ferrite transformer core Ŀ
except there are two bobbins one on each end Ŀ
rather the one in the middle. This magnetically Inv Zap
isolates the high voltage fly killer circuit and bob Bob
it can be shorted out or not without affecting
the UV lamp inverter much.
If the UV tube gives up, try a double sided PCB with 2 rows of blue LEDs
mounted instead of the lamp and across 12V...

And to reduce the inverter power, add a 10n across Collector to Emitter and
change the 1K5 to 12K for 75mA @ 12V total load.

Why don't U send an interesting bul?
