Hi All,We are considering building a 150kva tesla coil, similar in scope to Greg Leyys "Electrum". Does anybody know a cheapish sorce for a tank capacitor bank that would be up to the task?I see on Surplus sales Nebraska they have a number of Aerovox pulse caps rated 50kv 0.307uf.http://www.surplussales.com/Capacitors/MaxwellList.html SX359E5Aerovox quick discharge pulse capacitor. No PCBs. Single ended. Body is capacitor ground. Removed from service. Very clean.• 0.307 µF @ 50 kv • 684 Joules • Dimensions: 6" x 12" x 19", 27" overall height with insulator • Mounting Plate: 6" x 16" • Mounting Holes: 4" x 14" c-c • Weight: 78 lbs They don't have any further technical info, and Aerovox don't reply... Does anybody know as to the suitability of these caps...? They appear to be low inductance, but will they handle the pulse rate...?
