So what's a spark jump?

Comments

[stubbornandfrustrating]

It's a setting in the equipment that was created that keeps too much energy from flowing from one spark to the other--it regulates it to just enough to jump the other spark.

Mm, yes, that'd make sense. I don't suppose you have a copy of the schematics lying around -- or perhaps you'd be willing to draw some up for me? I'd be interested in studying this method a little further.

[stubbornandfrustrating]

If the equipment was replicable here, I would have done it already, and I'm not the one who invented it.

...why?

[buffthis]

I told you, professional curiosity. If the proper equipment works as well as you say it does, that's quite the revolutionary technique. Wouldn't you want to know more?

[stubbornandfrustrating]

Well, if First Aid shows up, you can ask him. I don't have the specs on me and I can't rebuild them from scratch.

[buffthis]

Hm. That's disappointing.

Is there anything else you can tell me about the technique? Any key principles, even on a theoretical level?
