interesting thought, hey you never know what they did and after all thordarson always claimed that there flybacks were exact improved replacements. So the thought of using a different gauge wire on a given coil within the flyback to handle higher voltages could be possible but of course the amount of turns would be different for a different gauge wire being thinner or heavier just as long as the ohms were correct for that coil.
