    Thaats the same place I got my 2sd1071’s and they don’t work either.

    Well that pretty much nails it then, doesn’t it? Sorry to hear it.

    BTW, are the D1071s obsolete? I can’t find them at Digi-Key or Mouser.

    quote Phil B:

    Could the voltage limitation be overcome with “protection”?

    The circuit as published already has a protection device.. so to me, the question is: "What happens when that protection voltage threshold is further reduced?"…

    Would someone with a working module take some measurements, to see how the spark voltage and energy change as the protection diode voltage threshold is progressively reduced?
