The inventor came close to accomplishing this when his "mad scientist" experiments with electricity led to his creation of the Tesla coil. The first system that could wirelessly transmit ...

This device can be thought of as the little cousin to the Tesla coil, and can be used for many of the same high voltage experiments while being far easier to assemble. Now [Jay Bowles] is ...

A high-voltage electrode, set at the top of a Tesla coil voltage elevator, emanates arcs to a grounded node. The plasma filaments in this experiment 5 with radii of 200 um can exist over relatively ...

If you have a thing for Tesla coils (and who doesn’t really) you will be interested in this experiment/history lesson about wireless power put on by Omega Recoil at this year’s Maker Faire.

Making plasma from metal vapor is a bit unusual, though, and the sodium experiment is pretty interesting and a fun use of that Tesla coil in your closet.

Nikola Tesla built a machine that could fire bolts of electricity through the air. His Tesla Coil became a symbol of wireless power—and raw electrical beauty.

Inside the strange wooden structure, technicians began to assemble an enormous Tesla coil, specially designed to send powerful electrical impulses into the earth. On the evening of the experiment ...

The fundamental operation of a Tesla coil. Dealing with EMI generated by ... but Tesla convinced him that this would be a grander experiment than Marconi’s radio. The tower, constructed out ...

Inspired by Wattson from Apex Legends, we brought the Tesla Coil concept to life—sparks, arcs, and all. This real-world turret experiment shows just how wild science can get when gaming meets ...

In the experiments such as performed this evening, we operate the coil either from a specially constructed alternator capable of giving many thousands of reversals of current per second ...

In the Niagara Falls where hydroelectric power experiment was conducted, a statue bronze that gives Tesla's achievement is built. And it is as famous as a generatorTesla coil. The strange figure ...
