Yeah, but one big jerk is all I need. How far do you think that window
needs to travel? Maybe some Autolites....and a 160 t-stat...wouldn't want
the arcing to overheat anything.....help me, Bernd....:-P

That will boost the voltage but, alas, at the cost of current. And since
the
coil stores power inductively you could only use it in bursts like an
ignition
does. It actually might work if you don't mind putting the window down in
50
separate jerks. But the potential for arcing inside the motor at that high
of
a voltage makes the whole concept very interesting and I'd really like to be
there when you fire it up! BTW I realize you were joking :)
