Thanks Harvey. I tried reading through/understanding the original, but my train-of-thought kept crashing, as it was it the wee hours of this morning. I will rescue it from my deleted files and study it further.
Very clever!

In the post I indicated that only 2 volts AC are inputed to the NST primary. On the secondary 4 diodes are arranged as a full wave rectifier to change the AC into DC, and also a very small capacity is attached to serve as the cap filter that smooths out the DC ripple. Since we are only drawing very small amounts of current from the secondary, only a very small cap filter should be necessary. The SOLE purpose for this approach is that the NST is a special form of a transformer that has a secondary that is "current limited" on its secondary output. This means we can short out that secondary without burning up the transformer, where ordinary transformers will pull excessive amperage and burn up if such a short were placed on the secondary. The purpose of this is to establish a power source that is "current limited" on its output, so that we can rectify that output signal, changing the AC to DC that is routed to the CS cell. In the post I indicated that a ~ 2 volt AC input to the NST would establish a secondary DC maximum current of 1.23 ma. This is known by putting an DC amperage meter on that rectified output, and finding out what the maximum current draw on output will be. The changing DC voltages that develope on that output are due to the CS cell load becoming more conductive as the batch time progresses. Thus we start out with a current that is slightly under the designated current limited output made by test, and as time progresses that current goes towards the designated current limit, where the consequence of this is that less and less voltage appears on that output. It is essentially using a "variable voltage source" as the voltage source for the CS cell, and in this way we are using the smallest possible amount of voltage across the CS cell that is necessary to approach the designated current limit. Essentially the voltage that developes is dependent on the conductivity of the cell. I am surprised that I could be so misunderstood on this matter, as any portion of the previous post can be used to re-explain what was just posted here. This is simply a "different" application of the use of the NST, that might not have been realized before.
