Real Wart Zapper DIY Discussion
Thanks, jdmech for starting this thread.
I've replicated Thomas Scarborough's wart zapper and added a few tweaks to it. I haven't made any final judgments about whether it works or not, but I'm experimenting with it.
I found the same problem you have about measuring a square wave signal at the gate of the Mosfet, and finding 25V DC coming out of the drain. I can confirm that it looks so on an oscilloscope too. The Mofset, incidentally, was added to switch the power as sharply as possible, in conformity to the germ killing principles around which the device was designed.
For a practical nuts and bolts discussion about this zapper and other such devices and research. I invite anyone willing to actually try and replicate a wart zapper to a thread I started here:

While I have no problem with those willing to do practical research on the subject talking about whether the device actually works or not,
armchair critics, i.e. those only willing to be skeptical just in their minds as an apriori assumption, and not through direct experience, are not invited and will be ignored.
