STEAP does not have to be a Toroid shape, I have added to the previous hand drawn sketch, it can be elongated, the only reason for a Toroid shape IS SPACE.
Silicon rubber insulated, Tin coated multistrand wire should be used, and good quality. Mine was from China, the new one will not be, it is coming from France.
The principle of heating is not fully understood atm.
It takes a few seconds to gain full output, that is because the waves are being multiplied up to near infinity or I should say near DC without stopping the resonance, it seems to auto control that point which stabilizes the output at a fixed voltage.
The kick is when the B mosfet is off, the diode supplies power from the stored up energy from the capacitor into the circuit, which it collected when the mosfet was ON and the A and C mosfets OFF.
