prewound Tesla secondary coils
Original poster: "Dr. Resonance" <resonance-at-jvlnet-dot-com>
If anyone doesn't have the patience or time to wind their own coils we are
now offering some small coils already wound and insulated.
They are 4.5 OD coilforms with a 22 inch winding length of #30 AWG high
temp wire. Wire is a neat green in color. We precoated the coilform with
3 coats inside and out of red Glyptal. These are lathe wound and very
smooth in construction. 1 inch margin on top and 3 inch margin on bottom.
After winding the ends were taped 1 inch wide on each end with Teflon tape
(best corona resistance tape) and then the entire coils were sealed with 4
separate coats (4 days) of Dolph's AC-43 synthetic enamel. A pair of
internal coil flashover baffles were added --- one approx 4 inches in on
each end and siliconed in place.
Produces 32-34 inch long sparks with a standard 12 or 15 kV NST operating
at 60 mA. Cap value was .026 uFD MMC style caps. Sparkgap was 3 series
gaps of 1/2 tungsten held in 1 x 1 inch square brass holders atop an insulator.
Requires your endplate and a toroid, and it's ready to go. Available in US
only --- don't want to mess with the paperwork hassle of foreign customs.
If interested please contact me off-list for data and photographs.
