That means not to use it with standard fluorescents or with motors, etc., because they can have higher starting power than the rated power (and burn out the drive circuit of the detector). CFLs were not
You could use a simple voltage divider with the 110VDC going through a 100k resistor, then through a 4.75k resistor to common. The point between the two resistors (we'll call this the voltage tap) will
There are lots of webpages that show how to build Tesla coils. And some people sell kits of parts or components. Two tutorials on building are: http://www.ehow.com/how_2059585_make-tesla-coil.html
