A corona charger includes a conductive electrode and a corona wire between the electrode and a receiver. A non-conductive shell about the wire is open toward the receiver. A voltage is periodically applied to the wire, whereby a corona charge is produced in the shell and the shell charges with the wire such that the corona charge is directed toward the receiver. A voltage is applied to the electrode of same sign but lagging the voltage applied to the wire such that the corona charge is accelerated by the electrode to the receiver when the voltage on the electrode approximates the voltage on the wire.
