In my opinion, the topload is the least critical component, (I once used a cooking pot !)
if you make it nice and smooth and shiny you will need ...

Thanks Steve, that is good to know. I may give it a try on the coil I am building now.

Seems that thread may have gone missing - others looking for it too. For now I am ok with knowing it's close the JAVATC formula. I am curious which fa...

I found 7 rings of 25mm coax cable for mobile antenna installations. Only cost me cable scrap price from a junk yard. It has a hard plastic outer shel...

FWIW, the "frame covered in rounded edge discs" actually works, it is used in some ultra high voltage test rigs in the power industry.
There's p...

The effective capacitance also depends on the secondary coil dimensions and relative topload positioning. I believe JavaTC assumes this.

Reducing the number of rings will affect the breakdown voltage more than the capacitance.
The argument goes something like this: Since the rings...

I think you hold the record for longest human discharge o_O
How much does this burn the skin at the break out point?
Can it be felt that the...
