To Respected Sir/Madam, I have a plan to build a Tesla coil but I have a little experience in this field. Last year I built a smaller one by using a 5KV NST and bottle capacitor but I was not satisfied by the performance so now I am planning to build a bigger one. For this purpose I have bought a 15KV 30mA NST, a secondary of 2.5 inch diameter and 16 inch tall and a toroid capacitance of 15pF. But I am still confused for the capacitor, I don't know which type of capacitor should be used and what should be the voltage rating of the capacitor bank. So I am requesting to you all please provide me all calculation and schematic including filter circuit and others. I don't want to use rotary spark gap because it will overflow my budget. Thanking You Pranab Lodh India. _______________________________________________ Tesla mailing list Tesla@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.pupman.com/mailman/listinfo/tesla
