Hello fellow coilers,
Not a good day for me. I just sent my cap back to Plastic Capacitors
Inc. for an autopsy. It was working great then all of a sudden it
started to spew oil. This was purchased on 2-29-00. It was a tesla cap
30KVAC.RMS .05 MF. I was using a 14.4KV/5KVA pole transformer. I dont
know what happened but I hope that Plastic Capacitors Inc. will honer
the warranty as this cap was expensive. 
I talked to Tom Brown who was very understanding.
Best Regards Jeff
