Re:
"What if I forget the capacitor?"
Then you would have fire and smoke. Capacitor is
essential, as what the circuit does is first charge it up
and then discharge it through the coil. Without the capactor
you would have a dead short across the power line.
Will post schematic when I have chance to get it in
form which is postable.\
