The controller performs much better with the smaller gate resistors now. I'm going to put together the mosfet based version, and try that one out. Also, I"m going to see how it behaves with polypropylene caps. The spikes are pretty large, perhaps due to the really crappy single ripple capacitor and tiny gate resistance I'm using.
