i did this and it works. i put an
inch thick layer of 10 w 30 on top of the water and whenever i turn on
the circuit (this is just the hv source a gap and the caps in series)
the oil likes to dance around the neck of the bottles. also the oil
turned from a clear viscous brown to a light opaque caramel colour. any
info about this? it still works fine tho.
