Current

Hello, everyone

In a standard Tesla Coil Setup, I have heard people talk about three 
different ranges of current:

1) 23-400mA - This I know is the charging current, directly off the 
transformer.

2) 5-16 A - People talk about this when talking about the capacitors...Can 
someone explain this a little more?

3) 100-1000??? A this they say is what is traveling through the tank circuit, 
thats why you need heavy wire to/from the primary coil...

A little more information needed...
