Hi,

The record book "here" has Wysock's Model 13 at at 59 feet as the longest reported and verified arc length of record to this night...

KVA Effect's dual coil was expected to easily beat that. If it now "somehow" operates, that might be a winner if any reports are given and verified. Greg's Electrum at 50 feet is a close follower. His NLL is a giant killer but not yet actually built (200 feet) expected.

Tesla himself got to 31 feet in his limited "little" lab in Colorado Springs. Bob Golka has the "power" record for pumping about 1,000,000 watts into his Wendover system! He did a lot of very important work there! That was the first time 1970's electronics met controlled lightning and set the rules for lightning protecting far after to this day. That is where a lot of EMP stuff started to take hold. You all probably have not seen this video of Golka's monster in action :D

Lots of links there too... Of all the Tesla coilers I have met, Bob Golka was by far the most impressive!!

51 Feet... Shoulda had a toriod... Don't worry, Everything in the little fighter plane model was melted to lead :D
