All,

How should I refer to the wattage of my Tesla coil.

My tube coil uses two 250th tubes rated at 250 watts
each. In past posts, I've referred to this coil as a 500 watt
coil, however, the meters tell me that 3800Vdc at 700ma
are flowing through the tubes (their maximum rating).

It pulls 11A from a 120Vac outlet.

I assuming that RF power (which I can't measure right now)
is another measurement all together.
