Do your neighbours complain of dimming lights?

Hi Ed,
Well, "I" don't really notice any light dimming when I draw these arcs
but
other residents of my home have
happened to mention this ;^) BTW, those dark sun-
glasses that I'm wearing are not to look cool. Expe-
rience has taught me that the arc is bright enough to casue "welder's
flash" eye pain when the arc is viewed with unshielded eyes! I'm actually
pretty lucky with my
electrical service, as the 50 kVA padmount transformer
that supplies my home (and several neighbors' homes)
is directly across the two lane cove from my house (<100 ft. run) and my
feed for my "toys" is right next to my mains load center breaker box.

How much do your lights dim when you draw arcs out of the pole
transformer? Awesome pictures.
