[BC] High Voltage Diodes

[It's Dave]

I kept strings of 14 "skywired" 2.5A 1KV diodes hanging on the wall for
quick install after lightning for use in the Henry.  They lasted better
than the $100.00 bolt-in modules.  $8.00 per HUNDRED.

Leave the leads full length for heat dissipation and zig-zag them. Don't
put anything across them.

> Years ago....(early 80's) I had a RCA BFF-10D that kept eating the diode
stacks so I replaced the 400PIV @ 20 Amp stud diodes (at ~$20.00/ea) with
the Motorola 1000PIV @ 2.5 Amp rated ones and never had another problem..
