I recently took a 12Kv 30ma France neon apart and removed shunts. There were
20 plates per shunts I took 4 out the first time and there was no current
increase. I eventauly took 9 out. Leaving 11 pieces per shunt. I now get
48.5ma out. I don't get any more current out until I take 5 out, then I get
33ma. I was wondering why I have to take so many shunt plates out to get so
little current increase. I have heard most people only take 3-4 to get this
much out. The transformer put out 30ma before I took any shunt plates out.
