Having just received my recent sale flyer from Radio Shack, it looks like 
there are some items of interest to the Tesla Coiler...
On page 6C, $20 strobe light #42-3069.  I think there are modification 
instructions on hot-streamer-dot-com to make this line synced, for setting up 
that rotary spark gap.

 >>>Nope!  that is the 42-3048 -

On page 30, the Kill-A-Watt, #63-1152 appears to be an electronic watt 
meter for $30 up to 1875W.  Now you can figure out those PFC values 
empirically.  Might even be modifiable with an external current transformer 
for higher powers?

On page 35
$15 for a clamp on AC ammeter #22-602. $50 for the 22-801 multimeter that 
claims to measure capacitance. $70 for a fancier one that does true RMS #22-816
