Re: secondary wire diameter

Hi Dmitry,

What is it you dont think so??? Yes the 6x24 toroid has a breakout of 500KV. The 80 inches was measured and witnessed. I did have the toroid a little too high and had frequent arcs to the strike rail from the corona ring, but did have an occasional long arc to a ground target. Anyway the toroid is too small for a 2KW power level and I will have an 8x32 toroid ready soon and I will be happy to share pictures.

no, i don`t think so - your coil can`t produce much more than 500kv
(breakdown voltage of 6x24), but my will produce about 900kv at the
same power level (12x39 toroid).
