This video is much appreciated! Would you possibly make another video to go into more detail with a half bridge set up for the DRSSTC That would be amazing Thanks again for the great detail of this video it really helped
@@CarlGat thank you!! Sure may take a little time but will do a halfbridge I also have a halfbridge I run on a little coil but can be scaled up could got into detail about it ?😁👍⚡️
This is a fabulous instructional video! Thank you! How do you use your oscilloscope without killing it with over voltage? Do you use a high voltage differential probe or did you make a separate step down voltage transformer and current transformer like you did for the current feedback loop?
@@BrentLeVasseur thank you very much ⚡️⚡️I use an isolation transformer and I have a 10 X probe. So that gives me a maximum of 400 Volts that I can read, I also use a variac. 👍👍
The small yes in a way but usually ones a cap starts to fail it can finish its self or not reliable. The primary capacitor lives in the most harsh environments but as long as you use the right caps, voltage and current rating are in spec than they work great Cornell caps are great Film style caps but others work great too just need to be pulse rated 😁👍⚡️
Hey dude . Is it a viable idea to use a single CT for the Primary feedback and OCD together . The cores for me are expensive and hard to get so if i can use a single 1:33:33 Transformer then that'd be great.
I have never tried that but you would need at least 2 to get 1000/1. Also you need strong feedback usually also you may be able to salvage some out of old electronics devices but not sure 🤔
@@spiderspider1384 ok perfect but I have not ever tried this to be honest it possibly could work know 1 goes through a 51ohm resistor and other is a full wave rectifier so not sure if it could drag power from the other so I'm not really sure on this question?
@@ArcAngelTeslaCoilYour right that wouldn't work cus the feedback signal is clamped while the OCD needs the full amplitude of the sinewave to properly trigger
I don't what that is you have there, but I am pretty sure when Tesla made his device the so called Tesla-coil, there wasn't any diodes, transistors and even the capacitor was just coming into use in electronics.🤣🤣🤣
I hear you times have changed but he did have glass bottles as capacitor or salt water capacitors. But he definitely was tapped into something 🤣 here is my first video using salt water capacitors in glass bottles, this one had no Electronics 😁👍⚡️ua-cam.com/video/2P4YwjkaRKs/v-deo.htmlsi=F9Mw-3GFnSjl-DPF
Thanks! I always appreciate a review of hooking up a tesla coil.
Thank you!! 👍⚡️

@@CarlGat here is a sample run of the small coil that's running a halfbridge ua-cam.com/users/shortsz2yRWvY9o7c?si=_jcr6Kn7E34JYbv8
The circuit board wall is clever!
Thank you😁👍⚡️

Thanks for the very interesting overview
My pleasure 👍😁⚡️
Are the red capacitors self-healing? A great video!

@@ArcAngelTeslaCoil you are the best!
@@shawncalderon4950 I'm not the best but thank you for your kind words. I enjoy build these Tesla Coil 😁👍⚡️

@@ArcAngelTeslaCoilI meant I'd use the dual core transformer but just 1 set of those instead of two for both feedback and OCD

@@spiderspider1384 not sure if you can add another wind on the core that may work but again not sure
Bro , how i you calculate primary and secondary turns
Plz tell me 😢
@@IRF_WANNA here you go. javatc.teslacoil.co.nz/
@@ArcAngelTeslaCoil thank you brother . I hope I can calculate it properly
@@IRF_WANNA let me know if you have any questions may be able to help

Will do, and you are a good sport. I plan to watch all your videos. Will sub. Take care.
