ONLY 15 minutes of run time;);) big grin. in 1 run I might say!

Fr. Tom,
        I'd like to ask if you would try these transformers in their
ferroresonant mode? They should output a "square wave" in resonance as
apposed to a sine wave in non-resonant mode. The square wave mode
should offer a much higher break per second opportunity than the sine
wave mode will.

If you are inclined: does the ferroresonant mode of operation make any
difference in the spark length of your TC?

        Regards,
