i have been trying to find some info in Dual MOT coils with a charging reactor and the advantage as well as any info on the caps and circuit people are using..

i have had some good success with a dual MOT set ballasted with a MOT and a voltage doubler (although i need a bigger secondary)..

but i would like people to give me any info on there coils

so basically I'm asking people to show off the MOT coils (including a schematic or detailed pics)

I'm the guy that created the video that Vasil is revering to and I just wanted to emphasize a few things. First, there is no need for that set of high voltage diode tubes in-between the charging choke and the Tesla primary circuit. I have been running the coil without it for some time now. Second, The charging choke is what takes all the abuse from the high voltage "kick back" produced by the Tesla primary circuit so it must have a very well insulated winding. The good news is that the charging choke protects everything down stream from it so you don't have to worry about your MOTs or rectifiers or any of that stuff.

Thanks for the referral Vasil.
