I am calling in at a place called CPC in the morning, I have ordered some 10nF at 3KV and some 2.2nF at 1KV.
I will fit a 2.2nF as it looks to be just a decoupling cap i.e removing spikes, I could fit a 10nF at higher voltage but suspect the size will be too much, there are some on ebay and I will order some of them eventually.
I was trying to measure voltage readings as well before the arm twitch?
There are plans afoot to make a simple THC for it and have bits on order from China this is to provide an Arc OK signal Z up and Z down outputs hope for sub £30.
Then stick it into Mach3.
But it's a let see if this works first.
