Nick,

although the coronatron uses a lot of power, I didn't think the sparks
were particularly long because it operates on DC which gives a much
shorter spark length for a given input power.  I don't remember however
exactly how long the sparks were.  Oh I just noticed the question
was what's the largest VTTC.  I guess it depends on how "largest" is
defined.  I was thinking in terms of spark length.
