Whaaa!! Ya think I am a weenie... That is full 120uS 340 buss stuff!!!! Well ok... The current limits were set right on top and the primary resistors were killing the thing to the max ;-))) The "box" was putting out full, but the coil was about "maxed" for power in that case ;-))) Hey that is hand in my pocket full bode stuff there :o)) I could actually "feel" the feeble streamer through the wrench!! I am glad it barely showed up in the picture ;-))
And the AC line current meter read.... Well ok... It read zero :o)))
Cheers,
Terry
