I'm not expert in NSTs,but if they allow charging Q=30 or more you can easily set your coil (actually with static gap employment) to run in a "very" low BPS mode if cap is mains resonant. If this could be done (I wouldn't know since I dunno of NST construction) then setting NST primary voltage to only 5 V or so can allow charging tru many subsequent cycles on secondary side cap- fireing near peak of final Q raised voltage will give low BPS. Maybe this is a bad idea,could beadly affect NST but this is just my thinking out'loud. regards, Boris __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? LAUNCH - Your Yahoo!
