spark gap tests

Nice vid.Capacitor in parallel?

Thanks

use optical filters for spark video, and zoom with manual focus.

what the hell is your electric bill like?

At 2:30 - I wonder what effect that would have underwater. Wow. Is that ever cool.

Thanks guys :) As you see the arc is very much influenced by magnets without extra capacity but if the capacity is big and the discharge very strong, the magnet influence seems not so great. So the next step would be to use much lower capacity acp in parallel to the gap to see if magnet influence will be bigger. The goal is to blow out the arc before capacitor is fully drained.

Good stuff. Thanks for posting.

Good job,i often wondered why tesla's patent had magnets for quenching.to the result is fascinating.are you making a tesla coil?

Keep up the good work.

Very cool

this is some wicked shit dude, ill give u 20 bucks to stick your finger in it lol

current limited im guessin?

Please show us the circuit driving this spark gap. The cap addition is really something.
