WOW that's a lot of questions altrez 

I'm uploading a video now which will answer some questions and I will take picture of this very complicated circuit.

1 4KV trigger coil (goldmine)
1 2N3904 Transistor (where ever)
some wire

The red wire (BASE) goes to something metal ie a pan AL foil...any
The wire coming off the top of the trigger coil is your out put and that goes to something else metal.
You adjust the ma draw by moving the base metal object away from the output melat object.


Oh yah I forgot to start this thing up you have to touch the base metal object to the output metal object

hehe cool! How many pins on the bottom of that trigger coil? And how are they hooked up? Can you post a pic of that please? How much current do you pull on the receiving end?

Whats the distance? Can you run a second JT from the wireless receiver? How many receivers can pull from the transmitter?

Thank you

OK this is the test I really wanted to do and I'm sorry it doesn't show you much!  I have hooked up my AV sniffer probe to another simple sec circuit and I can pull light off the second circuit without drawing any more voltage or ma on the first circuit!

Thanks Guys.

Here is the circuit I used in my last video.
It will run with a 1.5v up to 6v with the coil configuration.

My next coil will 6" diameter and I'll see if I get better results.
