Re: [TCML] Hi power/ little coil??

[bartb <bartb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ignoring the obvious difficulty with breakout, it's the power that would 
cause the secondary to breakdown. But, if power is kept below that level 
and the secondary has the ability to develop a charge at the top load 
capable of breakout, then no problem. It's been done with magnifiers. 
The largest ratio of coil dia. to toroid I've built is a 4.5" coil with 
24 awg using a 9" x 30" toroid. Worked fine. The coil was the 3rd coil 
in the system.
