This is my first flyback experiments. The video shows the first arc I made from a flyback transformer, my 'prototype', then it built into a box, and me frying anything I can find! The flyback is from an old black and white portable television. Im hoping to find a better flyback soon, and build a better driver circit. Enjoy!

Thanks to the helpers at 4hv.org !!

  • What are you using as a power supply?

  • @Alex1M6 Just a 13.8v 5A supply

  • cell phone!!

    Doctor its dead!

    (jack). its ok we have this transformer to bring it back alive!!! turn on the electric fields!

    (jim) ok zzzzzzzzz,,,,,,,,,,,,,zzzzzzz,­,,,,,,,,zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz,,,,,,,,,zzz­zzzzzzzz,,, (jack) its alive!!!! wait nvm its dead agian F*** Turn the camera off!

  • @sonicxlc123 Haha brilliant :)

  • caN u help me with how this works please and what component goes were..what coils to hook up

  • @metaltomato100 Google 2N3055 Flyback Driver

    Its a very simple circuit.

  • You ought to build a better enclosure. Current can flow through air without any visible arc. This can be observed by holding your output conductors far enough away that an arc can't be created, and you will hear a hissing noise. These are ion currents, and they CAN electrocute you. Try unplugging the leads from your HV output and listen for any hissing noise. If you hear it, you need to insulate better.

see all

  • i hear some tasty jungle

  • dont put that much current to such a tin wires they will get very hot and melt!

  • at 2:45, the legit way to burn a cd

  • How to connect the pins of a flyback Transformer using a 9V and resistor to create 3000V?I want to know how the pins must be connected of a flyback transformer. I have the wires, 200Ohm and 20 Ohm resistors, switch and transformer. I have everything but I wanna know how to connect it.

  • Your about as bad as me... awesome video lol

  • you a jungle man??

  • @sparkie21 i found the powerlabs driver but i could not find the right resistors. is there another circuit with more common resistor values?

  • is that enough to kill or hurt someone?

  • Dude, your bed is not a workbench. Setting stuff on fire on your bed really isn't clever.
