I've recently been in touch with Mark Barton and informed him of the 
THOR project (he's been out of the loop for ages now). He responded 
by telling me that he and friend achieved 2' from 100W average 
wallplug draw by operating their MOSFET driven coil in pulsed CW mode 
(high peak power - 8kW+ and low duty cycle).
