newbie (n00b)



Original poster: Slurp812 <slurp812@xxxxxxxxx>

Would I be a newbie, or a n00b amongst coilers? Oh well anyway I have decided to build my first tesla coil. I have read many pages of info in the internet, alot of it from people on this list, like Terry. So far Iv got a 15vk 30ma NST, and a few bolts for a spark gap, 120v AC 5-inch fan for quench, 4 20oz iced tea bottles made up as capacitors, a bunch os 800ohm 20 watt resistors, and Iv just orderd 10 of these: <http://www.goldmine-elec-products.com/prodinfo.asp?number=G14878>http://www.goldmine-elec-products.com/prodinfo.asp?number=G14878 What do you think? I am a bit leery of the 35kv rating. at least as a tank cap (low cap count MMC) I was thinking maybe 5 strings of 2 each for 7.5nf But it seems to good to be true. Maybe I'll just use them in my RC filter...
