  • @lokeycmos the police

  • is someone knocking at the door at :17?

  • how did u ballast it????

  • does the mots get hot quickly??

  • @HighVoltageScience from reading that my head hurts lol

  • Awesome! Next time try out 2 microwave oven capacitors in parallel to the secondary windings in series. This will create MUCH bigger arcs!

  • are you using two transformers? will a 2.3kv capacitor work to make arcs like these?

  • The burned out sparkler make bigger arks cause

    the burned part is a insulator and the wire is a

    conductor that makes a capacitor and make's

    bigger arks.

  • hmm, The burned-out sparkler draws much bigger arcs, must try that sometime too!
