Parallel and series arrangements of CFLs on 2ndary.
Observation of longitudinal standing waves in the CFLs.
Spark-GAP Energetics: Parallel vs. Serial arrangement.
Heaviside came to the conclusion that electromagnetic waves were not to be found as longitudinal waves in "free space" or homogeneous media.
Bang Bang Maxwell!

  • Really nice,

    What IS the frequency range you are running through? And what is the voltage you are using?

    I began to do some of these trials with cfl's also. Great video. Thanks.

  • With the 555 timer, I can adjust the frequency by changing caps and resistors. I was shooting for 2 to 5khz ... but tried higher and lower frequencies too. The ignition coil appears to like 4.8khz if I remember. Input voltage is 12V.

see all

  • great vids buddy!!

  • Good video. More Tesla tech in "Wonderful electric energy" by HorizonDelta ;-)

  • Well this 555 timer / ignition coil isn't Aromaz. Its more Tesla. Aromaz is into the "self-resonant" type circuits whereas the 555 timer technique is FORCING the frequency to be what you want -- similar to a signal generator.

  • great work good idea with the foil and glass look into Electrat I have a video of one,it charges up for static and it will discharge to ground!!! it will help the swing,

    message me if you need info

    love and light

    topwork man!!!!!
