Ha Ha, my mini Tesla works wonderfully !!!Ã,   Ã,  Ã, 

(I even have the RF burns to prove it, the little devil is dangerous, It even cracked the light bulb after 20 seconds or so)

Looks great EM,
what frequency and input power are you running it at about ?
Could you show some more zoom in scopeshots please
or a video about it ?
Many thanks.

Regards, Stefan.

@EMdevices,
I'm of the opinion Nikola would have been proud of a mini prime mover like yours 
Any idea of the circuit power consumption before the fatal overload of your neon? Even a ball park figure would be helpful.

So we're pretty much done attempting to DUPLICATE Dr Stifflers SEC eh?
For goodness sake, if you don't believe the man, just leave it be. He didn't come here selling stocks! It's cool that
you built a mini-Telsa coil EM, I'm proud of you, sniff sniff, and your electrical construction skill-set is awesome, but do you have any intention on measuring input power and output power? I mean really. I can fry things with cap banks too. Doesn't mean I debunked an SEC HYPOTHESIS either. Account for the frequency of oscillation mathematically and then measure it several ways. Account for the stage gains or losses mathematically and then correlate with measurements. Account for the shifts in circuit operation due to insertion impedances, such as scope probes or adjustments in the Litz wire secondary in relation to the exciter, and show how to minimize these or explain the causes. There are many constructive activities to be done in the "attempts at faithful reproduction" Show off the skills you have but please don't patronize. It is childish at best and downright rude at worst!

Is that "suppozzzzzed" to be a reproduction of the SEC we are attempting to explore here? Please post measurements of the end to end system efficiency and the evidence that this circuit is operating exactly the same as an SEC driver. Otherwise the Tesla forums are a perfect place for Tesla coils. There may be similarities between the two! Post your circuit schematic and the comparative analysis that provides the coorelation! Are the waveforms showing the same circuit operation? They may have no more in common than the copper wire! You may be right! You may be wrong! But you, and the rest of us will never know unless Doc's circuit is reproduced EXACTLY and then carefully pulled apart through analysis and testing. If we are going to act like the "US socialist media party" and go after sensationalism, we're screwed!!!!!!
