Awesome arcs! What was the PSU?

[juniortore1]

Awesome! I need to try some of these things you did with my ZVS

Beer can JL FTW!

Powerful video without the pun.:-) Whats the volts and cost spent to produce the light given off from the conductings discs when the energy jumps between them?

[corester123]

where are the electrodes placed in the bottle one?

[FastMHz]

the bottle is sitting on an energized hard disc platter, and an electrode is at the mouth of the bottle.

[corester123]

oh and is the bottle filled with a noble gas? cause i tried to get a similar effect with a light bulb but it just burned a hole through the glass. :(

Plain 'ol water ;-)

[jmartis2]

cool, whats the transformer?

[FastMHz]

There are 4 8kv transformers, overvolted for 10kv each, and then series/paralleled into 1 20kv @ 60ma unit.

[ChrisKarr]

First of all, how much would it cost for me to do this, and, second of all, what do I need?

[FastMHz]

Depending on how cheap you can score the transformers, which are most expensive in this demonstration, prob less than a hundred bucks. I got mine on eBay.

I like the beer bottle this most.
