I pulled a bug zapper apart for its transformer too.  The plate on the
zapper said "6KV 9mA".  It will probably be quite a while before I get
around to doing anything with it, but I'd be quite happy to hear how you do
with yours.

Hello,
 I am going to go miniature for a bit. I want to use my old bug zapper xfmr
to
run a coil. Unfortunatly, I have no idea what the voltage or current on the
secondary is.
 So, here is my dilema. I need to know if anyone has ever tried this...or a
cheap way of checking the outputs so I can go ahead with this project.
 Thanks,
Robert Lunsford
