Running a long time test: 185V at 75mA plus 9V at 100mA. Diode temperature rise is 8C and ripple on HV is 78mV RMS. Going to let it run til Saturday morning (When I need my bench back).
Once thing... you had to saw apart the ultrasonic weld to get it apart,
right? Any good ideas on gluing it back together?

I would probably be interested in both, thanks.

Model 9V 170V
TR1509 15T 250T
TRG1509 11T 184T
The TRG1509 adds a faraday shield to the outside of the transformer but it does not impact the rewinding of the secondary which is the outermost winding in both models.
Since the output voltage is turns ratio dependent, it would be easier to wind them as required for specific output vonfigurations. For adjustability of the HV output, the low voltage output would be variable within a useful range. For instance, for a 100V to 200V output range, the the HV winding is calculated for the highest voltage and then the low voltage winding would be calculated to give the minimum usable voltage for the minimum HV output.
Every other switcher I've pulled apart splits the primary. The main reason to do this is to limit the leakage inductance: Magnetic field of the primary curcuit that is not part of the secondary curcuit. Leakage inductance shows up as a voltage spike on top of the primary winding added to the turns ratio voltage when the primary transistor turns off, kind of like an ignition coil. You either have to way over rate the transistor or add an energy wasting snubber to keep the transistor from dying.
Shorting the HV to ground however has the same effect of shorting the LV output to ground: The switcher primary current sense circuit will turn the unit off. These power supplies are designed to handle this type of failure indefinitely.
My choice of a 5 pin keyed connector is with the ground at the center left was made to prevent the HV from accidentally being connected to the LV output even if forced in backwards and give extra isolation from HV to GND.
1 NC
2 LV
3 GND
4 NC
5 HV
The forward bias efficiency impact will be minimal for two vs three diodes as the forard voltage at these low currents is so much smaller than the output voltage.
It may even be a wash as the 600V parts are faster and energy is dissipated as the devices switch from on to off during those Trr nano seconds. A faster part is less energy. In either case, it's not worth the energy to calculate it!
