thanks  i’m using a zephyr coil and was wondering does the steel laminate need to go to ground as well? do i need to run the ground wire from the laminate to the battery?

Your coil lam’s get a ground here but I don’t think it needs to be.

Hi Beezer. I have recently made up a a coil system using a similar coil that tubs has shown and there wasn’t any earth tag on it and my one works well.

Tubs says its not required and I agree.
