Plasmasonic Audio Modulated Tesla Coil

The Plasmasonic is one of the first stereo audio modulated Tesla coil systems. Music is modulated directly from the high voltage, so there are no speakers used to produce the sound - it all comes from the high voltage arc!

NOW - Boards are finally available for purchase. Complete design detail including free schematics, and instruction manual at http://www.easternvoltageresearch.com

Yeah, and i know i was humming like a tool. Didn't even realize i was doing it!

Dude, that is awesome ;)

What type of jack is the audio input? usb? stereo jack? Thanks XD

[eastvoltresearch]

@blastmonkey14

Thats just a standard audio RCA line-level input.

aristotle73, I have done that myself a few times with my own toys. It's one of those effects. playing with a Geissler Tube, that led Tesla to his idea for transmitting power through the air. Higly impractical to get any kind of real power any great distance due to not being efficiently coupled, but genius for a guy in the 1800's, eh ? Oh, and watching someone forget that and get shocked brings back fond memories :P

[eastvoltresearch]

Yeah, wasn't so much getting shocked though. It was a burn - the metal in the bulb connector got extremely hot.

[eastvoltresearch]

Thanks. The audible frequency range is only limited by the power. The highs have no limit, however, for lower frequencies (bass), you need to move air, so it would be limited by the size of the arc.

The music is from Yanni, i believe.

[eastvoltresearch]

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed them! I'll have to upload the stereo plasmasonic videos soon!

what would happen if you put your finger in that

?

[teslaozone]

is there a way to make this without buying the kit? I want to make this for a science fair and i dont think it would count if i just bought a kit to build it.

@HitokiriBob ?

@weezilla ignorant children.

Your website sucks.. Also known as NOT WORKING.

I want to do this!

so somehow the (pulsating) electric field manages to raise the energy level of the gas molecules inside the tube; voltage (alone?) is performing work here.

[robrickye]

Because the electric field around the coil interacts with the gases inside the lamp makes them illuminate. Same thing happens when you plug it in (you cant see wiring inside them, just gas, still it illuminates). Correct me if i'm wrong.
