  • Do you publish in wonder as a circuit diagram of

  • You rock!

  • can you send me chematics for this ?

  • Cool

  • I am interested to buy from the Mini Tesla Coil ---Finished.ASF kit from you if you would make a kit for me.

  • what is the dia. of the tube it looks like 2 inches but i googled the slayer exciter curcuit and it says to use a 1 intch tube what would you recomend?

  • can somebothey post the schematic???!!!!

  • do you have to use the circuit board or can you just hook the coil up directly to the phone charger

  • What about if you put your head next to it, will it fuck up your brain?

  • hi sounds like you did to make tesla coil but with 9 volts DC, the breathtaking "really is your circuit,,, what could happen or help with one .. the truth is very good

  • Very well done! Could you post a link to a schematic of this project? I'm thinking I would like to try it sometime, too! Thanks!

  • Joule Thief anyone? on this project and a near dead battery...

  • Subscribed, this is awesome :)

  • As always great stuff. Tried to track down emdevices could not locate, help. Could you pleasegive alittle moreinfo on this item. Coil diameter turn count, primary gauge count and turns. and again as others, Please add a circuit drawing.

  • I had made an AV plug with an LED and had tried it with my laptop charger, and it had lit up! Amazing!

  • Ahh a christmas ball. I wondered if this would work. Not with a tesla coil. But, did you ever notice that whenever there was a picture of Stubblefield using his "battery", there was a silver ball on the top? It was never clear that he actually used a reed switch, and I always wondered if he didn't arc the switch over the metal ball somehow.

    I guess I am still wondering.

    I like the mini tesla lamp. It is a nice contained item.

    thanks!

  • I was expecting a spark :)

  • This is really amazing. A nice set up you've got there mate, a christmastree ball... creative :p Can't wait for the next video!

  • Lid, you can make the toroid. I know you can.

    If you want a longer distance between your towers, make the pick-up exactly like the sending.

    Resonance.

    Just like two E strings on a guitar, when one is plucked, the other vibrates.

    Harmonious interaction between devices yields results of greater efficiency.

    Keep up the very cool work.

    Peace.

    Mike.

  • very nice work,.. I love these wireless transmitters, though I have yet to see one that will really transmit a lot of power. I'm wondering how it would change the output if you replace the christmas balls with metal sphere's (since glass is in insulator) or doesn't that matter much with these high frequency wireless devices ?. (btw. you could probably build the whole circuit, incl. the battery, inside the coil for a very neat looking device)

  • @phobosapiens -----You read my mind. The cell phone charger fits nicely inside the Tesla coil but it disturbs the coil resonance and it doesn't work. A metal toroid shape on the top load of the tower would be the best thing to use up there but finding one or making one is hard.

  • @Lidmotor yeah, I was wondering about that, too bad. Of course you could always make a bigger base, but it would have been so nice. About the toroid, I've seen bigger tesla coils where they use a styrofoam ring covered with tinfoil or aluminium tape. I do believe small styrofoam rings are available or maybe you can use another material like wood or plastic, might be worth trying. The shiny balls look very nice though :) (btw. have you tried powering it with a small solar panel ?)

  • @phobosapiens ------I could drive this with a solar panel. Thanks. I might try that. I have one that should work.

  • all that from one AA is an amazing thing to behold-nice work.

  • @m3sca1 ----Thanks. Getting something to work off one AA is fun goal.

  • @Lidmotor you got good loose coupling between L1 and L2 now did you try matching the mass of copper as tesla described?

    try a topload size like a thimble-should get corona breakout.

    although you might need more volts in to get breakout.

    also if its tuned to quarter wave the bottom will be zero volts.

    grounding the Tx providing an artificial one like stiffler does should increase output too

  • lidmotor, Really beautiful work, looks very refined with a merry touch from the shiny bulbs. It is a remarkably simple circuit also, I have made a couple but not nearly as good looking as yours. Cohere and prosper! aloha

  • @jackscholze ---"Cohere and prosper". That made my day. Thanks Jack.

  • Could this be done with a sec 18-1? what's the difference between slayer and dr stiffler exciters? Is it about band width?

  • @seedstarbrazil ---- Dr. Stiffler's SEC circuits are different. They are more precision and require delicate tuning to acheive correct performance.

  • briliant work again, now mixing concepts up.... well done.

    i thought the tesla coil should be flat. have you tried it flat?

  • @seedstarbrazil --- If you are talking about the primary coil on a Tesla coil the answer is yes they can be flat. They can be built like this one also. The "pancake" coil idea is something different.
