Yeah, I know, I'm strange. I run 1kw to 2 kw using a synchronous break. I 
only get 4.5' discharges, but I'm, working on it. My primaries are only 
about 4 turns too. Also it takes much less energy to wind a 240 turn 
secondary. If I can do away with the toroid, I also won't have to build 
any more donuts either. Maybe I can go into production with a real 
cheapie TC.
