  • this toroid is too small :-) - bigger toroid, bigger sparks :)

  • SkatermanTC

    Tesla coils rely on having the primary circuit ( The Primary coil and capacitor Bank) in RESONANCE with the secondary circuit

    The secondary circuit is also a coil and capacitor and the CAPACITANCE is provided by the TOP LOAD

     The size of the Toroid ( top Load) is determined by the capacitance required to bring the secondary Circuit into resonance with the primary circuit

    IN IT SELF, IT DOES NOT MAKE BIGGER SPARKS

    It has to match everything else

    I hope this clears your confusion
