    I just got myself a neon sign transformer (9000v, 30ma) and want to make 
sure I take care of it.  There seem to be sites about everything on tesla 
coils so I was wondering if there were any about the anatomy of transformers 
and how to rig up some protection for them.  Any information would be 
helpful, such as how to de-pot and restore a fried transformer.  Also, on a 
side note, I highly respect the talent of this group and was wondering what 
you would recommend for a spark gap considering my input of 9kv and 30ma - 
static, static vacuum, rotary?  Anyway - thanks in advance.
