These caps any good for TC use??
Original poster: "Tom Stathes by way of Terry Fritz <twftesla-at-qwest-dot-net>" <newphreak_16-at-yahoo-dot-com>
Hello all,
I recently aquired 2 capacitors that i believe might
be good for TC use, but im not sure and would rather
not take a chance with them, as they cost me $75 bux.
They are labeled:
"high energy
CPP 332
.032uF
120KV"
I am thinking of using them in a DC coil, I have a
4kv plate transformer that im going to connect to a
multiplier to get 8kvDC. I am currently running 4kvAC
with 2 .05uf 11kvdc caps in paralell. The caps get
warm after a while and spark length is not as good as
it could be because my secondary is wound for a higher
voltage primary.
Using 8Kv should allow me to use a rotary gap
correct?? I tried a rotary gap with the 4KV and got
no output. Only way i do get output is if i use a
static (airblast) gap.
Thanks,
--Tom
