Mike:
I am close to the point of setting one up. Waiting on a part from McMaster.
I plan to have the dimmer in a standard AC box and connected by a line cord
to the cap and ignition coil (a remote config). However, I can assure you of
one thing: I will NOT attempt any adjustment of the dimmer/T-Gap while
anything is powered. Period. Ain't worth it!

Safety First...Really!

Hi Johnathon and list , 
I too am concerned that if I build one of these triggered gaps that I could 
get back 
lash from the tank circuit if I come in contact with the dimmer knob. 
Has any one else experienced any from these type of trigger circuits ? 

Thanks ,
