I have not looked closely but if he is pulsing the power through the coil he may be sending magnetic pulses/square waves thru the unit, inducing currents and creating charge clusters inside.
That is how my coral reef dissolver works...it gets 4 stars on Amazon! http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003Z96GR4/ref=pd_aw_sbs_3/177-0879451-8741201?pi=SS115 Stewart On Thursday, July 3, 2014, Jones Beene <jone...@pacbell.net> wrote: > Hi John, > > > > Yes it is a mistake to read too much into this amp-turn detail.
