i have rigged a grill lighter to only spark. meaning i took out the gas, but kept the piezoelectric clicker.
its a nice spark but 7 mm is... well, NOT good enough for me.
so i began to think of ways to make the spark bigger! please tell me if any of these would work
1) i make an electromagnet and "pre-ionize" the air so its easier to jump the gap.
2) i use a different element that is less difficult to break down. (i don't know of any so if you've got any suggestions, please write them down )
3) hook multiple rigged lighters together and trigger them simultaneously
im open to suggestions, and ideally hope that #1 will work because that would most likely be the easiest. then #3 then #2.
please contribute any and all ideas you have.
