[TCML] Idle musings about surge suppressors

[<mrapol@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was just wondering if common surge suppressors have any use in coiling? 
They are designed to protect equipment from power spikes coming in, but 
could they work the other way, dampening surges going out from Tesla coils? 
Perhaps by physically reversing the surge suppressor--cutting off the plug 
and wiring it into the Tesla coil backward, then using a double-ended cord 
to connect to a wall plug? Or is a coil too much for it, frying all the 
circuitry at the first go?
