I just want to express how amazing your coil length to spark length ratio is. Is this a record? You should really consider a patent so some company doesn't come along and create a "personal defense system" (weapon) or some other nonsense using this idea.
This has been done. I remember Pete Bitar and the Tesla Rifle fiasco well.
Yes, it is a record, it beats my previous record of 5ft from a 4.5 x 13" resonator, though someone else may have beaten that in the meantime.
Great work Steve, I've ordered some 4CX250Bs, a big SCR and a water cooling bucket, and will try to repeat your results ;)
