Hey everybody,
     I have found formulas to calculate the peak voltage put out of a Tesla 
coil system, how does one calculate the amperage (please note, I have only 
basic calculus skills).  Does ohms law work?  I am getting ridiculously high 
numbers from ohms law, using my calculated peak voltage, my secondary 
resistance, and the impedance from my secondary inductance, capacitance, and 
top load capacitance (but my numbers may be off, especially concerning the 
impedances, it has been a little while since I have done that stuff for a 
class).  Thanks.
Scott Bogard.
