I plan on using my welder for current control and
either my two 1256's or my three 540 volt 30 amp
voltpac stack. I currently use my maxwells three deep,
but may only use them two deep for 75 nF 70 kV rating,
which is kinda small for a coil this size. I'm afraid
to use them as 300 nF 35 kV, as this seems to be too
close to the edge. I have no idea how rough a life
these guys had before I got them.

Adam,
I have a couple of those Maxwell caps also, and as you, have been concerned
about using only one and have always used the two in series. I have read
where lots of folks on this list have the same caps. Is anyone only using
them individually, or multiple in parallel? If so, with what power
supply? I would feel ok at say 10 kv but both of my coils use a 15 kv
supply and I have just been chicken to find out what kind of voltage they
can really take.
