Re: Phelon coils Mercury

Lets separate fact from theory.

Fact: Many people have done conversion with great majority suceeding.
Fact:mercuryman narrowed his issue down to laminate. Don’t think anyone could argue that.
Fact:Without getting into depths of electrical engineering theory, we know that layered laminates are insulated and all by design.

With that said, many successes grinding or filing center leg. What I am willing to bet is that very few if any modifying phelon removed rivets and seperated layers. There is the obvious difference and detirmining factor in my view.

I think chances are with all conversions done, others have filed or grinder unequal amounts and conversion still worked . However, cant completely dismiss it because we dont know for sure.

Only way to know for sure would be to test out both separately. I am not willing to do this. I don’t have laminates to waste.

So I will end in saying that probable cause is seperating layers of laminate. Enough is enough.
