Dan,

Sounds like an Urban Legend to me. I can't see any way lead length would
affect the reliability of a NST. But maybe Neon Trent can shed some more
light on the subject (Neon light that is)...

Regards,

I spent a little time talking the guys at the neon shop a few days ago. One 
guy told that a major cause of failure for NST is when rookie sign 
installers use different wire lengths coming out of each terminal from the 
secondary connecting to the neon tube. The side with the longer wire will 
fail.

I am wondering if this has any bearing in the world of coiling?
