Re: [TCML] most corona possible from a car battery? - Moderator note

[Gary Lau <glau1024@xxxxxxxxx>]

Folks -

This thread has gotten pretty far away from the main focus of this forum -
building Tesla coils.  A certain degree of latitude is a good thing, and I
particularly enjoyed Peter's observation that attempting to increase
performance of an engine by using that engine to power an ozone generator
violates the fundamental laws of thermodynamics.  A little critical thought
goes a long way!

I think it's time to wind down this thread.

Thanks in advance, Gary Lau
