I built a small Tesla coil yesterday using the self-tuning, and extremely efficient, "Slayer" exciter with junk box parts. This morning, I tested it with a 150 watt replacement CFL bulb. Lit up like a Christmas tree.
Retested the neck and face of the 15GP22 for gas with the new Tesla coil. Nadda.
If Dave and I get normal looking cutoff tonight, I'm calling the tube good.
