Yup, built a microwave cannon. ;)
The waves kind of look like microwaves cooking the air. xp
Very high current so the trigger is a switch that clicks over a high power relay to the circuit, making the switch safe from feedback.
This magnetron (the 8 capacitors and 8 inductors) converts this high voltage into electromagnetic waves around 2.5GHz, which goes to the antenna, which ejects accelerated, high power, high frequency radio waves which excites whatever material it is pointed at and cause a temperature rise in said object from the energy being absorbed.
Hurz you little fuzzy bastard I love you haha. Thanks for the input, if you check I set them to 10.5 instead to get a stable 2.17GHz, but thank you, without you I would have never finished this masterpiece. :)
UPDATE: Energy recovery diode returns 30A to the battery when you switch the circuit off.
Reduced junction capacitance on diodes to 0F to reduce leakage current which would cause 10uV oscillations to appear on output.
Also added an extra resonance capacitor (1fF) to the output transformer to make output less spikey and more sine-wavey.
