Re: Bombarder

Just found out the primary and secondary are opposite each other. So this
means it's current limited, right? Now I was wondering if a ballast can be
used to further reduce output current for testing, and running smaller
coils? Also the ratings are a bit confusing. It has 12 KV  out at 600 MA,
but it is rated at 5 KVA. This would be about 417 MA. How does this figure?
