Hi All.

I put a photo of my portable 4" Tesla Coil on my web page if anyone is
interested in checking it out.

http://home.earthlink-dot-net/~gweaver

It produces 24" sparks from 750 watts using an unpotted neon.  The neon was
15K 30 ma and now it is 15K 50 ma. The transformer is in a box filled with
high voltage oil.

I mounted a toilet flange on top of the plywood base and the secondary coil
plugs into the toilet flange.  The secondary can be lifted off to make it
easier to carry around and it fits nice in the trunk of a car.
