The Tesla coil is a resonant transformer that generates AC electric fields that can power fluorescent lights and neon tubes, as well as produce high-voltage arcs. It is essentially structured as a ...

Using a powerful electric force emitted by a Tesla coil, scientists at Rice University have made carbon nanotubes self-assemble to form a circuit linking two LEDs and then used the energy from that ...

The goal of the project is to create a smaller and portable Plasma Gun device that will be based on the larger battery powered Tesla Coil. Two small high voltage ignition coils wired together in an ...

This “pancake” inductor wound with copper tubing forms the primary of the Tesla coil. The heavy black wire connects to an adjustable “tap” that allows tuning of the primary circuit. The elevated ...

It’s badgelife season, and if you need an idea for a killer piece of wearable electronics, look no further than this PCB Tesla coil. Yes, it’s killer, doubly so if you’re wearing a pacemaker. This ...
