I didn't just luck out this time. I've done it several times already. Of
course, that was with it running as a Jacobs ladder. It's my understanding
that NSTs run at a lower voltage when short circuited. In TC duty they see
higher voltage as they charge the capacitor, but since I have my spark gap
conservatively set the firing voltage has not changed at all.
