Hey All...

been thinking about this situation of charge time and such...  what if 
two sets of caps were used in this system?
1 set driven by the power source ( piggie etc) which is then dumped into 
the second set when the rsg is in line with the caps used for the LC 
circuit of the coil.
Has this been tried before??

just thinkin...
