The data base at the geekgroup is not going to meet my needs.  :(

There has to be more than just two people that have coils that fit into
my crieteria.
I just know it.
Any one else have input for me
I need it.

thanx

We have started an online Tesla Coil spec database:

http://www.thegeekgroup-dot-org/tcdb/

I don't think many people have been using it, nor do I think any more
coding has gone on to improve the dB....  But it's there :)
