Secondary volts im assuming as im getting large voltages on the scope leads near the coil when running. yeah OCD is at 350A the limit as advised in the microbrute manual. You hit OCD quiet easily if your out of tune. I can only control PRF and PW from the interrupter.

Interesting read lol at found some reo bar in the concrete lolo. Ahh yeah i saw some of their stuff before. here's a quick drawing i did of what i mean by the ring down im seeing on my scope when the coils running.

I see ill have a read. yeah i saw the 12" was a bit of a rip, have you ordered from that mob before? When you say audio you mean CW right? like plasma speaker or you mean our interrupted midi style coils? yeah it would, just add more turns to primary to counter it!

Hmmm depends how big, ive got 4", 6" and 8" currently :D Hmmm must i ask them on 4hv?

haha im very close to resonance, just fine tuning .1 of a turn on the primary at a time. Ive just got the scope leads in the vicinity of the coil when its running, looking at the voltage being induced into the scope leads i can see the coil ringing down, if i fine tune primary turns so that i...

hmm doesnt seem worth it. When i was fne tuning my microbrute, the only sure way i found to know which way to tune it was looking at how long the coil would ring-down for (with a scope), is that a good way to fine tune the system?

Hmmm what if we use both top and bottom layer of a board for carrying the power?

Can we design the bridge board together Sigurthur? :D

If you get real keen, i can send you a whole kit for nit picking. thanks! yeah man, this thing is super tough, with the OCD it cannot be killed by over current.

Nice man! Should definitely order enough for 10 kits! ive got parts for at-least 8x Plasma Speaker kit parts and 10x Nano SSTC waiting to be made, pitty i have this whine in the plasma speaker. I need your assistance with the plasma speaker can i send you the BOM, schematic & board layout :D...

whats the price tag on that puppy?

hehe thanks man :D Im planning a small scale SGTC this holiday season!

Yay just hit 15" arcs with a 10 second tune and the OCD doesn't come on :D

You read my mind! im adding a 6" toroid to lower the secondary resonant frequency!

I know streamers add capacitance and tuned it accordingly. Just need to know the questions I asked.

I rewound my primary with silicon insulation 12AWG wire, its blue! On a tunning note, im in the process of tunning my Microbrute now i have a scope and signal generator. The secondary is resonating at 410kHz and the primary was ~300khz so i changed the tank cap to a smaller size and got it...

The board is pretty done ill let Sigurthr post some of the nice photos of the render :D

Ive started the design, getting ready to plot the components and start the traces! Ive used OSHPark and ITEAD. OSHPark = High Quality Higher Cost ITEAD = Medium Quality, Lower Cost

Do not worry comrade, double sided board will take care of that
