I am interested in upgrading my low power 4" coil.  Primary is 11.5 turns
of 1/4" copper tubing wound on 1/2" centers.  I was wondering if a 15KV
30mA NST might be all I need for the size of this coil, or if it would be
worth it to go for a 15KV 60mA NST instead.  Is it possible to
"overpower" the coil?
