Anyone here used WIMAs MKP10 capacitors in a Tesla Coil tank circuit before? How do they compair to CDE942 series caps?

Anyone care to shed some light on WIMA caps and how they hold up on rapid pulse discharge operation?

Thanks for the response. WIMA as a company remains a bit mysterious to me. Looks like those FPK-1 caps are very limited in physical storage (uF).

Wima mkp10 caps are metalized foil caps and i used them in drsstcs without any problems. they are not as strong as the fkp1 which are film metal foil capacitors, but they worked well even in my big drsstc up to 600A pulse rating..
