Terry,

It can be done. I was already thinking about this. Efficiency would be over
80%. And becouse it is only spark gap we are talking about, it makes the
things much easyer to construct.  In electromagnetic fields, I made the same
achievement with fields of 0,1T(Tesla) using superconductors, as they were
at 10T, using regular copper ones, so it can be done. I`ll let you all know
what I did, as soon as I try it on my own TC - but I think there is no doubt
about it...

Regards,
Nele!
