Slow motion Tesla Coil recordings of SSTC sparks. Recorded at 8000 frames per second and replayed at 15-30 frames per second. Notice the step leader, known from natural lightning strikes and the hot spots that might be forming from collapsing plasma channels. Join the discussion at High Voltage Forum about these high speed video recordings …

Tesla Coil Teardown and test of a Post-Soviet era Tesla coil. Hardware and circuit analysis with a spark throwing test. For a discussion of teardown and hardware, come on over to HVF and join the fun 🙂 Tesla Coil Hardware This Tesla coil teardown revealed a pretty solid build, but with a few bad design …
This video shows your the method, tools and best of all, a few tricks to get a good Tesla Coil secondary coil varnish job done! This is something everyone can do, from a cheap battery drill to a expensive servo/stepper motor winding rig, its about the skill and not just expensive tools. You can do …
A look at a box of IGBTs and MOSFETs that I have salvaged from household electronics like microwave ovens, induction stoves, solar inverters, welding machines, car and battery charges and other common high power electronics with switching inverters. The TO-247 IGBTs can be used in a DRSSTC Tesla Coil using the free half- and full-bridge …
The Tesla coil Soft Start Safety Box project has been finished. The first version of my soft start box for 3 phased 400 VAC loads was just that, a soft start box. I wanted to include safety features like fault detection and emergency stop, but I also wanted to remain galvanically isolated from the mains …
