USAMFG-dot-net has line filters.  Unfortunately, they aren't listed on their
catalog pages but will show up if you search for the manufacturer (Corcom or
Aerovox).  You have to scroll through many pages of Aerovox to find the
filters but they have higher current rated filters.

I am in the process of constructing a trigger gap and I have a few
questions.
1. What current do most trigger gaps draw assuming a 150 watt load
resistor?
2. Where can I get some doorknob cap(s) cheep and are they necessary for
good performance?
3.  How important is a line filter and where can I get one cheep. I do keep
some electronics plugged in while I am running the coil.
