Hi Eddie,

I guess it really does not make any difference if the current from the NST
is rectified or not.  I wonder if when the NST voltage drops below the cap
voltage if the current unloading will mess up the resonant effect?...  I
have not thought about that much but I assumed it might work.  I'll have to
drop a full wave bridge rectifier in a MicroSim model some day ;-)  Got to
get even faster optics and IGBT drivers ordered first...

Cheers,

	Terry
