Since these produce much lower voltage drop than solid state or valve devices, are they not attractive for high current high power applications today? Tabby (talk) 11:35, 31 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think the problem is that sparking at the switches causes radio and TV interference. Biscuittin (talk) 20:14, 30 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That seems fairly trivial to solve compared to the power loss of silicon diodes at thousands of amps (for electrolysis). Tabby (talk) 03:05, 8 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
