Re: [TCML] Effect of doubling the input current

Tesla coil oscillator caps just love current, even more so than voltage.
More current allows cap to charge faster resulting in more pps when the
appropriate type of spark gap is used.

Absolutely correct!

And don`t forget that the only thing known to kill a tank cap is RMS current, which will melt a cap in short order. The self healing ability of the cap , on the other hand, renders the cap surprisingly tolerant to over voltage.
Love is a complicated thing.
