I think Malcolm  in other long ago posts I instigated
said that for the amp turns in the secondary to exceed
the amp turns in the primary, the primary would appear
relationship wise internal to the secondary... Geez
dont want to start a word war there cuz my memory aint
that great, but I seem to remember he  also said the
issue may be irrevalent, because in most TC cases the
amp turns on the secondary do not exceed the amp turns
on the primary, thus again it is relegated to the
category of modern myths. I dont know how one could
make such comparisons with a tesla coil, since the
amount of amperage in oscillation is questionable with
an arc that makes high frequency... However in my case
I used a very high induction coil as the secondary,
and did not use an arc gap to make high frequency, and
it was not a tesla coil at all; but it was just a
large secondary L value; and a smaller L value as a
primary that sat inside the conical opening of the
20,000 multiturn secondary: and each primary and
secondary was given DISCREET or separate C values:
thus it was a set of tuned L and C values on each
side, unlike the high frequency tesla secondary that
has a capacity not so well defined as a discreet
value, only its polar capacity as a top load plus the
effects of its own intenal capacity. But here in this
case both sides had separately well defined C values.
Thus well defined L and C values on each side could
also be operated as a source frequency air core
transformer: NOT a high frequency transformer as is
inclusive to discussions on tesla list. This
particular air core transformer was operated from 480
by an AC car alternator. In this case it was easy to
compare the amp turns on the primary vs the amp turns
on the secondary; because no high freq
