Our latest coil uses 5.5 miles of 23 gauge and it rivals the efficiency  of a
solid state coil.

More wire is better!

Hi Jared,
 
As you probably know from the last few years of TCML correspondence, it  
takes much more evidence than an "advertising mantra" to have an idea accepted  
here. What is your definition of efficiency as you are using it here, and  how 
are your measuring it? To which SSTC's are you comparing it? What  size coil is 
this? The wire length doesn't tell much that's useful except that  you'll 
have about 50 lbs of wire with about 600 ohms R(dc). With that  much wire, it 
would be difficult to make a coil with an f(0) over ~ 9  kHz.
