Re: [TCML] Solid state efficiency, was: mini Tesla coil specs

Steve, 
SGTCs can achive spark 4X the secondary winding lenght,
but one needs so big torroid that it dwarfs secondary winding,
and very high BPS.

I think R.Hull's Nemessis coil is a good example.

Some small coils have produced spark
lengths exceeding 5X the secondary winding length, my best has been about 4X
getting 45" sparks from an 11" tall secondary winding.  This is something
ive never seen with a SGTC, usually racing sparks would just destroy the
secondary if you attempted to cram that much power into one.
