Well, tank is two geek caps (0.15uf) in series with the two 1uF bridge
caps. Yes, the coil was varied to the greater power at the end. Heck, I
don't measure anything! The coil as filmed had .2uf (as apposed to the
.1 I have in the drawing) in the pulser circuit from your design,
basically:

river.jpg

But I added another .1uF to the pulser and got nice slow bangs. Tuning
is close at ~5 turns. The tank gets smoken when I turn it up...

I am seriously thinking I need supper high current Transistors to
proceed too the <pulsed> sheet o-flame...

Will keep posted;

Wow, thats quite mean looking at the end there!

Just some questions: what size is your tank cap? and what is your pulse
length?  i could see you varying it a bit as at some times the arcs
looked a
bit thinner.  Ive been wanting to try a tuned tank SSTC like yours for
some
time and my just try adding a capacitor to my current setup.  Also, how
many
primary coil turns?  And have you calculated the tuning to be close?
