Submission Form

This form allows you to upload a .tmf (TeslaMap) file to the Tesla coil design database.

Please take a minute to read the directions before uploading your Tesla coil design.

No personal data is uploaded. You can open the .tmf file with notepad or any text editor program and see exactly what is being uploaded (design input parameters).

Only completed Tesla coil designs will be accepted into the database. If you have missing specifications (NST input voltage, secondary coil diameter, etc) the design will not be accepted.

Please do not guess or estimate specifications. It's very important to upload the most accurate data possible. Many people may invest a lot of time and effort building a Tesla coil based on your data.

The .tmf File

This file is created when you choose File -> Save or File -> Save As... in the TeslaMap program. This file contains all the input parameters in your design.

Design name

This is the name of your Tesla coil design, or your name. Please use a descriptive and unique name (so the database does not end up with a bunch of designs with the same name).

Maximum Arc Length

It's very important that you measure this distance as accurately as possible. One of the primary goals of the database is to determine which Tesla coil designs are the most efficient. The maximum arc length should be measured from the edge of the top load to a grounded, metal target. Please try to minimize wind or other factors that may effect the measurement. The arc must make a good, solid strike on the target to be considered valid.

A good strike.	Not considered a valid strike.
