We've thrown lots of sparks, but is this all Tesla had in mind?
Can Tesla coils do real work? Can they power an alternative fluorescent lighting?
Build a "third generation" Tesla coil. Discover the magic of oil immersion, close coupling, and precise pulsing. Build a Tesla lighting plant.
Can spark also deliver clean, stable outputs? Meet the Chaffee gap used in voice-modulated transmitters of early aviation.
How electronic neon technology applies to Tesla-coiling.. A look at the familiar hybrid spark-ignition-coil and flyback Tesla coils. Then a leap forward to the Tesla coil pulsed directly by solid state, where battery 12 volts can yield 2000. The same circuitry can pulse 500 volts into a primary, yielding 100 times that voltage.
Build a Tesla lighting plant. Then hook up your ammeter and see what it says about Tesla efficiencies. How to enhance plant growth with high-frequency energy and Tesla lighting.
Can battery-powered Tesla coils aid us in the next big blackout. Will Tesla technology be the next step forward in home power?
