Re: my 450va-mmc outperformed my 720va-bottle type

Most likely the bottle cap was a big sink of power. Also, higher voltage and
lower current (less I2R loss, especiallly in the gap) is always more
effiecient for a partcular power assuming corona is kept under control and
the transformer can be found or wound.
