Hi Dennis,

If you are using a static gap your 30 nf is too much capacitance. Cres for a 15KV 60ma system is 10.6 nf and 1.6*Cres is a good value of Cp to use. Try a 16-17 nf cap and see if things work better.

I'm running a 15/60 powered RQ type static gap coil with a 0.03uF Maxwell pulse capacitor. The RQ is set at 6 gaps X 0.03" each for a total gap spacing of 0.18" which seems conservative.
