Re: Solid State Vibrators -v- Inverters ?
I think the key difference is that vibrators and their solid state substitues just switch a low voltage supply to make square-wave AC. From there on you just use a transformer.
There are many different types of switched mode power supplies, and they mostly do not work like that at all, because there are more clever ways to directly and efficiently make high voltage DC, often using one or more chokes, and done at high frequency so the chokes can be tiny.
