Hi Shane, There is no magical frequency except I would try to stay away from 455 KHz Matt D. -----Original Message----- From: shane bounds <57ovalbug@xxxxxxxxx> To: tesla <tesla@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sat, Dec 14, 2013 9:11 am Subject: [TCML] Is there an ideal frequency you should build around? Hi, I'm building my first Tesla coil and was wondering if there is a certain frequency you should try to reach with respect to the power of your transformer? I found one formula, but I'm not sure about it,kHz= 3032.5xw^ -2767 - 96.4, not sure what the ^ is or if the formulas accurate. I've got a 12kv 30 mA nst giving me 360 watts. I'm building it on paper first and trying to get a good understanding of it and at the moment my secondary will have a frequency of 322.6 kHz _______________________________________________ Tesla mailing list Tesla@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.pupman.com/mailman/listinfo/tesla _______________________________________________ Tesla mailing list Tesla@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.pupman.com/mailman/listinfo/tesla
