Re: Quik Question..



Chris,
  I run around .026 uF. My sparks exceed 80". I can't get any more 
distance in the basement. To really test it I need to move it outside.
I also know that larger coils require more power. I'm running about 
390ma. at 14,400. Your coil has a lot of potential. Good luck.
