Re: Tesla Coil Formula

Hi Malcolm,

Actually what I meant was that the two windings were
not connected in parallel but in series. I'm pretty
sure someone posted a schematic of what I was talking
about last month? Where Tesla showed a flat spiral,
wherein the ending of one coil is connected to the
beginning of the other. Perhaps this arrangement has
less inductance than a single wire coil? Or Maybe
it has a greater magnetic field for the power input?
That's what I was wondering.

Take care:
