Its ALIVE!

Well after relearning how to read and a blown IC I seem to be up and running. Having never had anything like this before I cant say if its operating to its full potential or not but it seems to be. Still working on borrowing a scope to see how well in tune it is. This is at about 50% power. Some nice sparks! Had a pumpkin with a fluorescent bulb in it but the streamers seemed to like the pumpkin more and would cause it to latch up so I had to shut it down. So this is just the coil by itself doing what it does best.

So those of you with tuned coils is this a typical output for 50%.
Edit: Another video for your enjoyment.
