In this three part video series I will show you how a common slayer exciter tesla coil kit works and how you can create your own improved version of a tesla coil that is commonly referred to as a SSTC. In this second part of the series I will show you how to create a top load for the SSTC as well as an appropriate IGBT full bridge driver. In the end I will talk about the function of the interrupter in the circuit.
