Re: [TCML] 3 phase mot dc coil first light

Hi
understood

That certainly does ensure no saturation I recall that with a 0.3 mm gap 
saturation was moved out to about 1 amp in the secondary. Even then not 
really saturated but beginning to curve off a straight line
Should be easy to solder that inner, just cut off at the lug , wipe with 
alcohol and use a hot iron, good luck

Thanks Ted, yet another thing I forgot to mention. The MOTs have their 
bottoms removed (open ended cores), so saturation should be pretty much 
impossible. Tonight I might try and pull three of them out of the oil and 
disconnect the cores. I'm dreading trying to sand the insulation off the HV 
wire though.
