Cool, ZVS would definitely be the way to go for a Tesla coil application.

"LOPT" stands for "Line Output Transformer". It's another name for a "Flyback Transformer".
 
May I ask why you keep uploading GIFs instead of actual videos? You can insert YouTube links, for example, using the "Insert" button at the top of the post editing pane.
 
It finally arived!
It does not seem to have a centertap for my coil wich confuses me.. since every other flyback zvs driver seems to have a centertap.
So i will just let you guide me trough the process so i dont accedentaly kill it.
My new bench power supply(30v 10amps) also arrived (wich i love ).

you could also use an oil furnace ignition transformer. when i was 14, i found one in the rubble of a building that had been torn down... that thing was great for jacobs ladders and tesla coils.
