Yup, they work for a few min, and then the leads just fall off from the
heat. Question: why don't ceramic "doorknobs" fall apart as well? I've seen
those used in SGTC's for whatever reason even though they waste power and
are kind of expensive since you need 10 or so in parallel (around $20 for a
measly .002 uF -at- 40kv).
