More to all "pluggies" (neat moniker)
Pls note that my coil design is less than 1KV. as such I feel that
plugs-r-us will work providing it is properly cooled/quenched by forced air
properly directed.
I will also try a standard RQ gap too and see what difference there are.
I will post all results to the list when this is finished around April.
It's been a wealth of solid (as opposed to stranded) information. Thanks to
all.
