Very nice!  I had to scale it to inches, and I think then the translate
needs to be "Count * Inch" but it looks good. I've put it in a test scene
with the large discharge spark as you saw, plus 20 switching sparks, which I
limited to 5 lights since they are small, and not so detailed anyway.

It's going to be a while, I'll post the image when it's done baking.
