Lightning Fury



I purchased a "Lightning Fury" HVHF device from Radio Shack a number 
of years ago and think that it is far superior in display to the 
plasma globes in use today. My question is this; Why are they not 
around? and Does anyone know what happened to make them unavailable 
today?

Sincerely,

Believe that you CAN accomplish the impossible and you shall.

[ NOTE: Apologies to Brad McPeak.  I suggested that discussion of plasma
  globes be sent directly to him (implying that it was off topic).
  However, Chris pointed out 
  "Both the plasma globe and to an extent the
  Lightning fury were lamp designs by tesla though somewhat modified
  and the power source is basically a solid state tesla coil using
  pulse transformers."  The operative words being "basically solid 
  state tesla coil".  I kind of goofed on that one.  Sorry. -- Chip ]
