Sorry Joshua, but I can sneese (not my first choise of wording) with more 
power than an Xray trannie makes :) LOTS of volts.....no amps. :)

I NEED lot of amps :) About 2400VAC -at- 500A would do m just fine for now :)


What you have there is a great idea...bad plan. I get an inordinate amout of 
them. Ask me about my waterless SW cap sometime. lol That one would have 
gottn me laughed off the list for months.
