"  Keep in mind that the secondary terminal can be charged by more than one
break/charge before it will discharge. In that case the wattage per spark
length is doubled or tripled etc. per spark!
"
John:
	Can't believe that!  It would require that the initial
primary gap breakdown be synchronous with the RF voltage in
the secondary, a highly improbable event unless you were running
a VT driven coil with grid drive to the tube derived by counting
down the secondary waveform.
