Steve Ward DRSSTC-1: an 80 inch dual resonant solid state Tesla coil

40N60 mini-bricks · 80 in · 2004

“This first DRSSTC of mine evolved from the ISSTC work I had been doing at the time.” An H-bridge of 40N60 mini-brick IGBTs, a 450 nF MMC, a 6.5×21 in secondary, and 80 in point to point at 1200 W. Racing sparks set in past three times the winding length, and that pushed him to build the next one.
