Fun with small Tesla coil

The camera works really weak in the dark so vids are not so good. The longest sparks have ~20-25 cm.

Some parameters:
Power supply: 10 kV, 26 mA (should be bigger...~0.5 kW)
Tank capacitors: 8 nF (2x4 nF), 25 kV rated (made in Poland in 70' , Miflex co.)
Primary: 2.8 mm copper wire, connected to 7 turn
Secondary: 450 x 75 mm, 0.63 mm insulated copper wire
We use a ball covered by kitchen Al foil or toroid (350 mm ex. diam) as secondary capacitor
Spark gap: a few copper tubes in series (I know it's shit...)
