I have to say that the MMC is the ultimate evolution in Tesla Coil Capacitor. I've used bottle caps, and they work fine...but such a pain to put together and a potential mess to move around. I would pay *any* amount of money not to have to deal with them (nowadays).
Hmmm...reasons why I think an MMC is worth the


expense:

1.) It is Lightweight
2.) It is compact and small
3.) It contains no oil
4.) It contains no Salt Water
5.) No glass
6.) Self healing properties
7.) Bleeder resistors/charge equalization
8.) Modularity for easy repair and convenient upgrade
9.) Better performance out of your TC (anecdotal?)

Hi Brett, Jonathon, All,

Anything is worth the expense IF you have the money. A new BMW is an infinitely more comfortable ride than a soapbox derby racer, but folks keep building them. Affluent coilers take their platinum cards to the capacitor store, while poor coilers drink a lot of beer. Who's to say which one is happier?
