Re: [TCML] pulse caps for large DRSSTC

["Quarkster" <quarkster@xxxxxxx>]

But DC -

There are small DRSSTCs, and there are large DRSSTCs.

Saying these caps have "been tested" means nothing unless the test 
parameters are known.

In the DRSSTC testing that you performed, what were the peak and RMS 
currents in the primary circuit, and through what range of firing rates?
