Hey Jonathon,
I'm still working on my new mmc with the geek caps.For my 15/60 nst I'll use
3 strings of 16 caps.If I hook up 2 strings it will be .01875uf,(for a
static gap) three strings will be .028uf (for a rotary gap)-at-32kvdc.Using 9
caps in series is only 18kvdc which you can get away with but I wouldn't
push it "to" hard.( I've set a few of the panasonic "Terry" caps ablaze from
abuse) but i'm over that:)
