Gary,It is going to be lower by an order of magnitude. Power transfer in a Tesla coil requires both ringdown and cap recharge. :-)

So assuming an adequate DC power supply and 50 kHz as the resonant frequency of your Tesla coil's secondary (with a slightly larger topload attached), then a break rate of 50,000BPS will be no problem as long as the RMS current does not exceed the transistor's RMS current rating, correct? G.P.
