Hi All,

As for odor removal, it works great.  When I did my ball lightning
experiments, I could not smell the burning car tire while the coil was on.
Only after the run was I able to smell the stench of the tire.  As for ozone
smell, xenon followspots also can produce it, and it's supposed to be
vented.  Smells just like my coil when the lamp is producing it.
