Hi DC,

From what you say below, it sounds like you have the design but have not built it yet?? If this is true, where did the 7.5 foot arcs come from??

Gerry R.

My SISG does about 28 inch arcs at 4800 SISG firing volts with a 165nF primary cap. It would do about 42 inches if I let it loose with one MOT... If DC can get 4800 Watts out of two MOTs, then the spark length directly doubles to 84 inches or 7 feet. But he is using a bit larger primary cap too... So 7.54 feet is about right. I am a little concerned about getting 4800 Watts out of just two MOTs. But DC might know tricks I have never dreamed of ;-))

I have not thought much about the dual MOT SISG system... But others are now thinking far faster than me on SISG things ;-)))))

Cheers,
