I measured the conduction (breakdown) voltage of the PolyPhaser lightning arrestor. I didn't think correctly,
it could not be only 80 to 90 volts , than it would only handle 30 to 40 watts. I am suprised that no one picked up 
on that.

I measured the breakdown voltage and found it to be 350 volts which is 2450 watts at 50 ohms. That is 
why they rate it a a maximun of 2KW.

If anyone would like to see pictures of my PolyPhaser installation, send me your e-mail address and I will 
forward to you a couple a digital pictures.   w0rihps at sbcglobal.net
