Re: [TCML] Full Power Testing of DC Resonant Charging System



Hi Greg,

thank you very much, it's a great honor to get such compliment from the constructor of the most amazing DC teslacoil systems ever built. And to be honest, your DC systems are the inspiring examples, which finally got me in building a DC tesla coil.

Regards,
Stefan

Wow Stefan,

Very impressive layout and craftsmanship! Sounds ready for a primary coil. That particular audio note is oddly familiar... reminds me of good times. ;>

Hello dear friends of the good old Spark gap TC,

last week I performed the first full power tests of my resonant charging
setup. It performs exactly as predicted, running smooth and stable with an
excellent power delivery.

With 2 different primary capacitances, 50 and 90nF I can run it on 2 power
levels: 7kW and 9kW mode. In 7kW configuration, maximum BPS is 400 and in
9kW mode maximum BPS is 300.
The power is fired into a 15kW halogen dummy load (30 bulbs each 500W),
which is replaced later by a tesla primary of course.
Here are two videos, where I'm beating the hell out of it:

running at 7kW,also showing details of setup:

running at 9kW:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GHl2L7xl2I

PS: Jim Mora was also constructing a DC System with his cool 3-phase
Raytheon Power supply - Jim, did you make any progress?

Regards and merry christmas,
Stefan
