I also did another test. I tapped the primary at 14.5 turns with the
6" x 24" toroid, and I got racing sparks about 1" from the top of the
winding, and also at about 1" or 2" from the bottom. These were
intense, and a "pop" sound was heard. I shut down the coil quickly
because racing sparks tends to burn up the secondary wire on this coil.
i forgot to mention that I left the breakout bump on the toroid,so there was spark breakout during the above test. The spark
was about 15" long or so, at full power (mistuned).
