We’ve seen a fair amount of Tesla coil builds, but ones using vacuum tubes are few and far between. Maybe it’s the lack of availability of high power tubes, or a lack of experience working with them ...

Who doesn’t want their own Tesla coil? Particularly if you can get one that isn’t incredibly dangerous or expensive to build. Well, this electrical savant built one in the 8th grade using vacuum tubes ...

This “pancake” inductor wound with copper tubing forms the primary of the Tesla coil. The heavy black wire connects to an adjustable “tap” that allows tuning of the primary circuit. The elevated ...

The Tesla coil is a resonant transformer that generates AC electric fields that can power fluorescent lights and neon tubes, as well as produce high-voltage arcs. It is essentially structured as a ...

This Tesla coil goes to 11. https://gizmodo.com/nanotubes-self-assemble-into-wires-that-absorb-power-wi-1771156028 A YouTuber going by the name nabzim has uploaded a ...

An Australian man who describes himself as "a 50-something year old first year uni physics dropout" has an unusual hobby - he makes lightning in his shed. The image above is called The Modern Thinker ...

An oversized Tesla coil is a movie and a photograph which are blowing out lightning violently. The Tesla coil is also big, so the lightning is also getting thick. If you are doing such experiments in ...

Technically, this is called Teslaphoresis. The idea is to use a Tesla coil that creates high magnitude diverging electric fields. These fields then can cause nanotubes to assemble into nanowires. Here ...

Carbon nanotubes have been made to assemble themselves into wires, using a Tesla coil, researchers report. This new technique could have a wide range of potential applications. Teslaphoresis, as the ...

What do you do when you find a 5 kW transmitting tube in your local electronics store? If you are [TannerTech], you build a vacuum tube tesla coil. This isn’t the usual little wimpy coil, but a big ...
