RE: [TCML] Jacob's Ladder

[Jeremy <jeremy_runescape@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

ok, i think i see the point here, related to the 15KV 0mA vs 0V 30mA NST output discussion that was going on about a week ago. i was just wishing that i could dump the power from a short, flaming MOT arc into that of a long, thin, hissing NST arc for the best of both worlds, but looks like it won't work out zzz. A third NST or flyback terminal midway btw the ladder would provide effective arc initiation as someone had mentioned, but it wouldn't provide the arc extension from the higher voltages that i was looking for.
