Just got my midi board finally working (no idea what was up with it) and gave the tesla a quick run, check out the videos

Now as you can see the spark lenght is rather short and the change in power and pitch is not smooth, any diagnostics you guys could offer?
The resistance from the ground pin to the breakout point is 220Ω.
The resistance of the pin in the power plug to copper water pipe supplying the house is 5Ω.
Im still waiting on the delivery of the toroid, but will make one out of foil and give that a go tomorrow.
