Each of these coils is up to 7 hundred thousand volts. Both together is up to 1.4 million volts. Try touching the sparks without a Faraday suit and you would be killed.

the loudest, most technological, insane, costly, and dangerous way to play music short of musical carpet bombing...

yet somehow I think this is the way Popcorn was meant to be played, in the creator's mind--at least somewhere in their subconscious.

@BecauseICannibal CD, it was on The Greatest 70's Party Ever, however I found it in a charity shop on vinyl which I found better :D

@BecauseICannibal "Popcorn" was originally written and performed by Gershon Kingsley in 1969 on a Moog. Hot Butter covered it in 1972.

@kthfox amps do kill, not volts.
