[AMPS] Need HV insulators/feedthru

[Rich Measures]

>Hi ALL,

Millen HV connectors suck -- i.e., they are made of phenolic resin -- 
which is hygroscopic, so the connector insulation literally sucks 
moisture out of the air.  
-  I use a banana plug and a banana jack.  The plug goes on the end of 
15kV-rated silicone rubber wire.  The banana jack mounts in the center of 
a 3" square of 0.125" g-10.  It's good for 15A.
