High voltage!

[candersson]

OK, here is an example from a cool test I made.
You might call it a digital version of Kirlian photography.
A very simple setup to produce high voltage with a car ignition coil, about 30.000 volts ( Beware! Hands Off!!! )
The high voltage is then connected to a piece of electrically conductive glass. Under the glass is a ball of solder-iron-tip-cleaner (brass shavings) connected to ground.

Hit the switch and you get a Ball Of Lightning

!!! If your not comfortable and know how to use high voltage - Don't try this !!!

Love it! Why not build yourself a Tesla-coil and show us your results

That is brilliant a really great idea for a photo but as you say not something to go about doing unless your totally comfortable with what your doing, really nice work

Welcome to TP I look forward to seeing more from you in the future
