If Rc is only 100R how is it supposed to dissipate all the power?
The 2N3904 has a maximum voltage rating of 40V, if the input voltage is 600V, the voltage across Rc will need to be 555V so the current will need to be 5.55A so the the power dissipation will be 3.1kW.
Did you read my note under the circuit shcematic? I made a mistake forgeting the name label of that BJT transistor I randomly chose. After previewing my message before posting I realized that and added the note below in my message to avoid any confusion.
...I put the model 2N3904 symbolically, I know it is not able to stand as high as 600V...
And my "portable-sun" friend...mmm portable sun. Excellent.
I think you are the type who only stares at pictures and doesn't read any text...
Go on, have you fun, I was stupid enough to design a portable sun.
