Re: [TCML] MOT stack replaced with PT, performance gone

[Tesla <tesla@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings

An aspect I'd consider is resonance with the leakage inductance and the 
primary cap in the MOT system.  Magnetically Shunted MOT's will have much 
higher leakage inductance ( I think at least 6Hy per MOT)  than the PT 
leading to significantly different dynamic charging of Cp with the PT I 
think

Subject: [TCML] MOT stack replaced with PT, performance gone

Hi,

recently my 4MOT-stack died and I replaced it with a PT.
I expected quite a performance gain, since it puts out twice the power of
the 4 MOT's.
But the completely opposite happened,
from streamers well over 1 meter to feeble 10cm sparks.
I also noticed the 200BPS SRSG fires very week, despite adjusting phasing
