Can Radiant energy pass THROUGH a spark gap and on through series circuit , if it's in a small vacuum chamber? There is way less dissipation into ambient air, and the energy may be useful downstream. In 2005-2008, A sealed extreme high efficient vacuum dual coils relay , as originally for an electrical 60 cycles traffic signals pole box, was used with engine experiments, to generate more efficient hydrogen gas from water. The engines would run with spark plug electrolysis, but only with the special relays applied to pass both high voltage and 7amps current! (not used for a relay purpose, but for contacts, diodes and inductors) I recently built one with Carlon sealable 4" box, vacuum gauge, valve, and Tesla spark gap with magnets, 1.75millihenry coils, diodes, cap and hand vacuum pumper tool. Not tested yet. The original contacts in relay acted as spark gap. This was IN VICINITY of magnetic coil field.
See one of Nathren's / S1R engines running, on hydrogen and water vapor pressure- S1R9A9M9 You tube videos 1+2. It was started with battery. Battery disconnected. Engine ran on the 12 magnet alternator , - self running sustained with 10amp draw. The high V. came in exactly after the cathode of diode inbetween the 2 series coils, then spark plug. The 4 technicians in Georgia called them "The Magic Relays". The web forum shut down. They never figured out the secret!
