        I have obtained two 2100V uwave transformers.  I'd like to wire the 
     primaries in parallel and the secondaries in series (dots together), 
     as has been discussed here.  Has anyone tried driving such an 
     arrangement with 220V with some sort of ballast.  Any success with no 
     ballast and low duty cycle (30s-1m with 5min breaks)?  These 
     transformers came out of 800-1200W rate uwaves.
