I'm about to fire up my 6" coil. Initially I'm going to run it at 
1800 watts. A 14.4 KV PT at 120 Ma out, with a 30 Nf maxwell. After 
tweeking, I plan on running it at double this, 3600 W, ie 240 MA. I'm 
going to run a sucker gap for now. Just how large a tank cap should I 
run, and how is this determined? Does a LTR cap only apply to NST's? 
Can I rely on teslamap for larger power levels?
