Re: [TCML] Multimode VTTC Tesla Coil



Excellent question, Scott

When cathode driven using the Audiotesla MIIc Tesla Coil Controller (same
one Dr. Spark uses on his midi controlled DRSSTC's), the tube coil sounds
exactly like a DRSSTC; only the output is not quite as robust. The main
difference seems to be that the tubes can take quite a bit more of a
beating than its solid state counterpart. I used this coil to develop the
universal tesla coil interface that Dr. Spark is using. For example, if the
interface box were to misfire, you could lose your IGBT's and those could
be some big $$ and alot of time. The tubes are very forgiving when it comes
to mistakes, and they're alot of fun as well!

Regards,
Hank
