I saw the new monopole schematic. It seems... at least extraordinary!
Nevertheless, some similar setups and findings regarding capacitor charging i have experienced myself. I think its pretty straight forward. Pls correct me if i am mistaken

The caps when charged directly from an voltage source of more or less constant potential are losing some 1/2 of energy in heat to the circuit resistor. By adding an inductor the books say this dramatically increases capacitor efficiency charging.
So perhaps the boosted charging efficiency could ne attributed to this?
