[TCML] dry cap voltages and corona

[resonance]

In air, keep your design Volts/mil to around 250 V/mil (DC values) and you 
will have no problems.

Hi, I have a friend that built a very nice coil, and he made poly flat plate 
caps  and arranged them so each unit  saw (approx ) 5kv or less ( figuring 2 
X the trans V output of 15K volts ).  He has had no failures, and said he 
read somewhere that with voltages up to 5000v , corona isnt a problem ,...
                              homemade caps without oil sounds intresting, 
(i have oil filled rolled now ) . any comments on the 5000 volt rule ??

          Thanks,dave
