Hi,

When i demonstrated my twin coil for my physics class(im a student not a 
teacher) my spark output could only reach about 17" when I normally get 
about 22-24(if im lucky) but usually 22" arcs in the garage.  The coil was 
raised up about 4' in the air, on a table.  The output was not nearly as 
powerfull as normal, but they all thought that it was amazing.  It doesnt 
always take too much to impress people with something as bizarre as a TC.

Steve Ward.
