T&R Electric - No More...

TCML,

T&R Electric is out of the business of selling to Tesla coilers because of 
a complaint and threat of lawsuit by a hobbyist. They won't even sell to 
kVA Effects anymore even with our insurance, corporate status and time in 
the business.

This is the same story as Condenser Products a while ago. They sold TC 
parts, TCML bought 'em, someone threatened a lawsuit (you know who you are: 
I do!) and now they won't sell to Tesla coilers.

Moral: You makes your sparks you takes your chances. Be a grown-up and keep 
your complaints and lawsuits to my vendors to yourself! This is EXACTLY the 
reason that we do not disclose any of our vendors to the hobby community 
nor provide specific help or advice on building coils.

Jeff
p.s. Ed Wingate predicted five years ago that the supply of certain parts 
(pole pigs, etc.) would evaporate once someone got hurt or started to 
complain. I am sorry to say that his predictions (injury, complaint, 
lawsuit, etc.) are coming true. This is the downside of the TCML; newbie 
fubar...
