[TCML] primary voltage

[mddeming at aol.com]

Hi Brandon,

Unless you are using some sort of multiplier circuit or are counting heavily on transformer-killing resonant rise, I don't see how you can get 36 kV flowing in your primary circuit from a 15 kV transformer. Please explain this circuit.

Hi Steve, 
 
Once again, sorry. I believe I misinterpreted the post. I told you my whole primary 'curcuit' voltage. Not my transformers output. 
 
Thanks though, 
Brandon
