How much of a difference in performance does using an RF secondary ground make?
Can using a crappy ground, verses a great ground, affect voltage output dramatically?

approx 3 kJ/ft of wire, so you should be able to blow up a 35 ft long wire approx #28 AWG.

I'm building up a 168 kV DC power supply using an X-ray xmfr to charge up a 200 kV one uF capacitor bank for our open house explosions on Sept. 9th. See you there!

I have a 25kv 330uf cap bank (103,000 joules) I wonder how big a wire I could use..
