Re: Negative Polarity Power Source?
for a demo fusor you can use a positive supply just as some use an AC supply ie neon transformer with no diodes

Re: Negative Polarity Power Source?
As I posted (had hoped you might have read it), and Mr. Futter said as well, any polarity will work for a demo fusor. That said, if you have diodes, the definition of the cathode and anode are created by connecting the correct polarity to a given part of the fusor. The negative to the cathode; then by default, the positive is the anode. For a real fusor, of course, the anode is ground as well. In a demo, your choice to use diodes and then follow the design of a real fusor.
