 Hello coilers,
I am busy building my first coil and would like some advice on the tank cap specs.
My power supply is the dual mot design from greg's garage tesla site which supposedly produce 12KV pulses. After blowing my 14 raidal cap bank rated at 14KV and 50uF (trying to scrape by cheaply), I decided to order the more popular axials. I am buying thirty cornel dubilier 2000V, 0.15uF polypropylene caps and will arrange three strings of ten thus yeilding a 20KV, 45nF mmc. I really don't wan't to blow $100, so I'd like to get a second opinion.
Thanks - Etienne
