I don't know the measurements of individual sections, but I think I kept a
couple from when we dismantled that one. I'll see if I can find out.

If you want one in pieces, I'll do it, but it's gonna cost you. It's a
filthy, smelly job that I'm sure I'll get suckered into doing myself, lol.
The oil they're filled with is particularly nasty to smell, and it's NOT fun
to take a bath in it.

It's one of those things that you only do for fun *once*.

Also, I know nothing about the connection structure of individual cells.
Only that there's a LOT of solder involved and some big copper strapping. I
can dismantle them without damaging the cells. But it's up to you to figure
out how to wire the beasties up. I would also recommend you only use them
under oil as they're obviously meant to be submerged.

Just beware....they stink, and the oil gets everywhere.

Hello Chris,

Have you worked out what the individual sections in parallel are rated at?  
If they are in the range of .1 to .5 mfd each they would be perfect for 
Pancake Coil experiments...

Will you sell them all hacked up for an extra fee :) ??
