Will a non sync rotor work OK on a TC at 5KW to 16KW or do I have to
have a
sync rotor?

Someone told me 1200 bps or above works best for a rotor.  How many bps
works best?

I have been thinking about building a rotor with 6 contacts on the non
rotating disk and 7 contacts on the rotating disk.  This will give me 42
BPS
per RPM.  Using a 1725 RPM motor it turns 28.75 RPM's per second.  28.75
x
42 = 1207 BPS. Is that to many BPS?

Do I really need a rotor?  My vacuum fan spark gap is doing fine up to
5KW.
I am a getting very good spark output of 6' up to 8' max.  Haven't tried
increasing the power above 5KW yet.
