Agree.  They can=B4t even differ between energy and power!  In a contect=
 where it is obvious they would mean peak power (wats), they state "peak=
 energies of tens of millions of Joules"

Bah. Who would believe the rest they write?

Interesting way to make a "sweeping resonator" thugh, by crushing the=
 inductor in the LC cirquit with dynamite...!

I really doubt a th eenergy in a bunch of capacitors can destroy anyting on=
 a distance though, as 99.9999999999 something of the released energy will=
 go to internal loss and all surrounding earth/water/space...

Unless the target set up a very huge antenna...

It will only make a noise peak.
