The trick is to be in the cage, because the cage forms "Faraday's Cage" and there wont be any current inside the cage. So the next time the thunder is coming... take a cage with you!
I have a hand held Tesla coil, When my Annoying friend comes over I tell him to touch it, A tiny bolt of lightning hits his finger, His hair stands STRAIGHT up (His hare is a foot long!!!) and he yells FUCK. Doesn't hurt him, just another way of saying "Go away please :)"
@lobitas3399 so if i know that i should ground the cage and keep my hands away from it and have someone who can shut down that thing and so on and so on i can try this at home?
Actually it's pretty easy to make a very small amount of ozone. Just buy a piezo lighter, remove the piezo crystal, and do some sparks with it, and you can smell it from small distance. The ozone is toxic, but a small amount of it will not hurt you.
@soundseeker63 The ozone smells kind of sour so to say. It's carcinogenic, since O3 dissolves into O2 and ,O' and this nascent ,O' is a free radical, so it's highly reactive. It will mostly damage your eyes and lungs if you're exposed to it.
@soundseeker63 on an old TV (tube tvs) (CRT) rub your fingers across it and smell the TV. that indescribable smell is ozone. i think it it 3 oxygen atoms stuck together, whole normal air is made of 2 atoms of oxygen
It makes me want to do it even more! And the ozone smell? Well, I don't have any HV things yet (still asking for one- if I dont get one, I'll build one) but I do have a poly blanket, a cool atmosphere, and hairy arm (Im 13 and a girl, but so whut?) and I can make sparks 6 inches long. If I make one arc to a silver earring near my nose, the smell is nauseating. XP terrible. I stopped for the night then.
@mercanaries3 Metals have delocalized electrons in their crystal structure, so the electrons can move freely between the metallic crystal. You can find more precious answer in wikipedia.
Awesome Coil!!! I'm making a 6 inch / 32 inch tesla coil... what's the size of this tesla coil? how many mots are you using? whats the capacitance of the primary coil?, how many turns is the primary, and what kind the primary is (flat...)? AWESOME VIDEO! THANKYOU SO MUCH!!!
It works like this. The cage is made from metal and all the sides are connected with each other. The cage has less resistance then a human body so the electricity is pulled towards the steel. U see only 1 spot is hit by the arc but infact the whole cage is, from that, the whole cage is positively charged. So no current will form inside the cage from side to side (compare it with 2 magnets facing north to north, they reject each other). And that's why you're safe inside.
Ok i tryed this at home because it looked cool. When touched the FIRE button, my dog came outside, walked to the cage and pied on it.. Thnx for killing my dog.
You seem to have a pretty decent current at those sparks as well, they seem much more opaque than most other I've seen.
Wich probably means that they will hurt. Alot.
I'm underway of constructing one as well, with 2 MOTs, and a relatively small secondary and top terminal. But I'm having problems with poor spark-gap design(it is pretty small); it breaks constantly.
You need a high speed rotary spark gap with a maximum 1mm distance between the electrodes. I have built one with 2 MOTS. It wasn't tuned, but made 2ft long discharges to the ground.
I wonder if you can feel the bolts
