Quick and Dirty Tesla 2

Improved performance after plastic Leyden Jars punctured. They were replaced with 2 glass (flower vases) Leyden Jars.

Caution: never attempt to connect a light bulb that contains a vacuum, or any other device that contains a vacuum to the Tesla Coil (or even let it be placed anywhere near the Tesla Coil). Vacuums can produce very dangerous X-rays when exposed to high voltage.

I love your laser video's. I never knew you could use rock salt to pass the energy. You've made the world of the co2 laser more open to people. Thank you.

@kartopla1982

Thank you for your compliments.

[misztal2112]

I have a couple laser videos up. Feel free to check 'em out.

Yeah he's my teacher, he mentioned you in one of our lectures pertaining to TEA carbon dioxide lasers. Both of you are rather giften in the homemade laser department.

This is nice!

Try tapping the energy, it looks like when the bulb approaches, there is no real transference through a spark, just simply light inside the bulb, until it gets to close, perhaps wrap coil around it and pick off the energy from the bulb?

It really does get addicting to play with. I always thought a gas had to be in a bit of a vacuum? I wouldn't get your HeNe laser too close, tesla coils can puncture tiny holes through glass. I got to get a hold of some helium.
