[TCML] Extra Cap before tank circuit

[Scott Bogard <teslas-intern@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey all,
     I watched a u-tube video not too long ago and some guy made the 
biggest Jacob's ladder type arcs ever with just two MOTs; he used a 
"resonant capacitor" attached to one secondary and drew the arc 
essentially from the other cap terminal.  My question is this, could one 
use such a power supply to get maximum current from your wall (it was 60 
Hz AC if I understood correctly) and then use a LTR cap to get maximum 
Bang size?  If your having trouble understanding, this would be the 
order of components, HV terminal from MOT, fed to resonant cap, fed to 
one leg of SRSG (or other) spark gap, fed to LTR cap, fed to primary, 
fed to other leg of SRSG, fed to HV out of other MOT (If I must I will 
draw a picture.)  Maybe you could take advantage of such a setup if it 
were DC, I don't know, just musing.

Scott Bogard.
