Yup... and that is what I will do. But I do have some questions dealing with the permeability of the core, and if it is gapped. I should be able to spot this in the leakage inductance though. But the true magic is in how they can sustain 12Kv without being vacuum potted. I would really love to talk to the manufacturer..... ----- Original Message ----- From: Peter L.
