Steve Ward's QCW DRSSTC: the first quasi continuous wave Tesla coil

ramped bus · straight sparks > 10× the secondary · 2009 to 10

A DRSSTC plus a supply that ramps the bus voltage up over the burst. The topload voltage is low early, so a small coil does not flash over. Later the arcs are long and straight, usually more than ten times the winding. Everything on the records wall descends from this idea. The branches below are the ways of making the ramp.
