It depends on how many amps you want.
IE- you want to limit to 10 amps. you must use roughly a 1.20 kwatt heater. (not accounting for phase. remember, amps times voltage is wattage (note, this is only true for DC, due to current being out of phase in AC, it will be slightly different.

Hi aris I saw a 4 mot tesla picture that used one of thease
the sparks were over a meter. I think i have the picture at home. Any how the tesla was AC I think with a rotery SG. Do a series parallel for a 4.2kv AC out and ground the frames.
The tesla of this size will make plenty of EMI and may disrupt electronics but should not destoy them. You may piss someone off if you do it on your padio in plain sight. you could tell them you are making a new type of barbicue that uses ozone
