Sanchez patented a very efficient small Pancake Coil for X-Ray use that used
the "kicking coil" concept:

I built one of these a few years ago, and it is surprisingly efficient for
its size.  A small 4" coil .75" tall embedded in wax and rosin will give a
5 - 6" spark without any problems.  Note in the patent the specs - it uses a
.4 mfd condenser!

Jeff:

	Do you have a schematic or other details on the primary circuit?
