Okay, I was planning on building a Tesla coil for my (high school) physics class. For the high voltage capacitor I was planning on using a Leyden jar, however, after doing some research I only found references to it being used to store an electrostatic charge. Thus, my question is, can a Leyden jar be used to store a high voltage AC current? Or should I stick with the more commonly used saline-in-a-plastic-bottle capacitor?
