I made this sstc working on 24V. I have same big sparks as in the video. My advices? Directly after building it, I had mini sparks.. maybe 1cm.. If the tesla makes sounds, but it doesn't give any sparks, try to put primary upside down and check in what position on seconary gives the best result. Most important thing is to use thick wire in toroidal transformer, which is used as feedback and in primary.. and you have to use thick wire in board or a lot of of solder.. Good luck!
It is a DC driven coil, like all solid state coils, but he is using an ISSTC style driver, Interrupted Solid State Tesla Coil. As for how much current he's drawing, I am not sure. I think it is impressive for 24V, especially that it is an ISSTC on 24V. :) Good job.
@xFLYBATx Might be safe or leathal, all depends on the output amperage. The lightning comming from the toroid is no longer 24V, that's just what's used to power the transformers before the coil. The regular calculation is 1kV per mm of spark (about 1/25 of an inch) but with direct current I'm not sure if that applies.
Kedves Skori!!! Igazán ritka és részletes leírásaid vannak a weblapodon. Köszönöm szépen. Ezt a vagány tekercset meg kell építsem! :) Köszi mégegyszer!!!
Considering you are just using 24volts, i am having very hard time making mine to work, i am using a20ma 15kva NST, so please help me and give your schematic cause i am interested to make one for me, ok?
Does anything happen if you point a LASER into the arc? I heard that LASERs ionise the air and make it conduct along the beam or will that only be very high-powered LASER?
@viliusseduika Think about it, he's able to adjust the frequency using a potentiometer - there's no motor whirring so there's obviously no rotary spark gap, and it's DC so _something_ needs to oscillate to excite the coil - I'd say you're spot-on with the IC and power transistors/FETs ;) Maybe a 555 timer, some mosfet drivers and a couple of IRFP2907's?
haha, that's a great film (especially the silhouette scene with the sailor - PMSL). LASER should always really be capitalised though because it's an acronym for "Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation". Laser and Lazer (as it is sometimes spelled) are technically incorrect. They are awesome things which have great potential in both lethal and non-lethal weapon systems.
@unholydobry Yeah...you won't feel it...but it has SERIOUS reprecussions to your nervous and circulatory system. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES TOUCH A LIVE TESLA COIL.
hey great vid but did you just hook up 2 12 volt batterys to the primary which passed on to the secondary is that it. Is it really THAT SIMPLE pleeeeeeeaaaaaaaase reply
@PodeCoet Well it COULD work, but how hingh currents must be in the primary, so it could induce current in the secondary? For 24V and that sice of the coil I think it has to be about 100-120 amperes. Am I right?
I was wondering if you could give me afew specson that coil you have there and isit only 24volts int he primary circuit or do you have ahigh voltage transformer hidden underneath the base wanting to build a low voltage one
HybridSpaceMonkey its actually both current AND voltage that kills you. Current cant kill you if theres not enough voltage (pressure) to brake down the resistance of your skin. That is a simple fact. But forget my last comment btw. You are right about the output of this coil being many thousands of volts. Im not sure why I said it was 24volts lol.
Could anyone tell me how this thing is oscillating on only 24VDC? Is there's some kind of IC-based oscillator with power transistors? Author, please response.
I use translation program, sorry for the mistakes. The average power consumption of the electronic circuit 100...140W The average current uptake of the electronic circuit 5...6A
Thank you for sharing your project!!! It 's wonderful!!! I want to build one myself. I was planning to feed it with a PC power supply, but I was wondering: how much current? What power do they need? Thanks!
and by fatal you mean you will recieve an arrhythmia which can result in loss of proper heart function such as ventricular fibrillation and therefore fatal (if left untreated)? I mean the 60-80 mA will -stop- the heart, I didn't mean lesser would not be anyless deadly.
@unholydobry and that is... wrong - it will go a few cm into the skin - the frequency has to be MUCH higher if you want it to stay "out" of the human body
Im not quite sure euro, since it is DC and not AC. I would not recommend anyone touch it, since it would give a hell of a shock! This is a transformer that take 24 volts and turns it into 200000 volts! Thats equivelent to a stun gun!

unless it is full or halfbridge, it isn't AC. It most likely is in this case, but flyback converters are just pulsed DC

Good job that is a pretty well tuned and built coil
Considering you are just using 24volts, i am having very hard time making mine to work, i am using a20ma 15kva NST, so please help me and give your schematic cause i am interested to make one for me, ok?
actually 60-80 mA can stop the heart, but that if you would apply it with electrodes on the heart
right, BUT it's the current that does the damage - not just the voltage ;)
Does anything happen if you point a LASER into the arc? I heard that LASERs ionise the air and make it conduct along the beam or will that only be very high-powered LASER?
now that was neat! Great sparks from such a small machine! Nicely built
Have you try a single wire loop at the top to level up power? I founded this trick with china's Tesla Coil

@jeancruz01 Of coarse it has a power source! Why on earth do so many people think Tesla coils produce magic free energy?!

please i need a answer... seriously at this voltage can the lightning cause injuries?
@unholydobry Yeah...you won't feel it...but it has SERIOUS reprecussions to your nervous and circulatory system. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES TOUCH A LIVE TESLA COIL.
hey great vid but did you just hook up 2 12 volt batterys to the primary which passed on to the secondary is that it. Is it really THAT SIMPLE pleeeeeeeaaaaaaaase reply
@unholydobry Never heard of RF burns? TC's and most HV stuff are great ways to get them...
@PodeCoet Well it COULD work, but how hingh currents must be in the primary, so it could induce current in the secondary? For 24V and that sice of the coil I think it has to be about 100-120 amperes. Am I right?
I just looked at your diagram. Wow! That's pretty good for solid state!
what's the small orange tube like lamp next to the batteries? does it have a function?
thats so cool just having a mini one!
dare ya to stick the camera next to it and see what happens :P
I was wondering if you could give me afew specson that coil you have there and isit only 24volts int he primary circuit or do you have ahigh voltage transformer hidden underneath the base wanting to build a low voltage one
Can you give me the schematic diagram of that project?

Ok, im from Croatia, and Tesla is from my countrey. But can you please make a tutorial or just a rewiew of that coil? I want to make it. THANX!

I want to build one myself.
I was planning to feed it with a PC power supply, but I was wondering: how much current? What power do they need? Thanks!
What is the frequency? primary? voltage? secondary voltage? , I like the top load:)
I want to build this where do I get the power supply to convert the DC to the right kind of current for this?
Pretty nice little sstc there running at 24Volts. Maybe I will make similar size tesla..:)
can u plz give me some instructions in how to build one like this
thanx
@donviper2012 maybe the two 12v batteries explains better for you..
I never googled it but thanks for letting me know. I might get around to making one of these someday
which components did you use? Please contact for me urgent.
are you puting 24v straight into the primary or is it steped up before the primary circut?
I would like to make a Tesla Coil, like this, would you be able to supply the plans, please.
So your just putting 24v into the primary coil?
nice indeed! Is it DR btw? I thought it is as I got 15cm only from 100v supply..
Nice Video:)
Is it really from 24 V? or do you have a flyback or so:)
How many sec turn does this coil have?
and by fatal you mean you will recieve an arrhythmia which can result in loss of proper heart function such as ventricular fibrillation and therefore fatal (if left untreated)? I mean the 60-80 mA will -stop- the heart, I didn't mean lesser would not be anyless deadly.
I have made one and its working.But what will happen if i touch it?
@unholydobry and that is... wrong - it will go a few cm into the skin - the frequency has to be MUCH higher if you want it to stay "out" of the human body
It is safe to touch with a metal rod?Do feel anything.
can you tell me how is the connections?
which transistor did you use. and can you put the circuit diagram
if you get the circuit diagram, can u send me the link.
facebook.com/resul.canyurt.9 you can contact me from thıs fb adress thank you
Ivan R facebook.com/resul.canyurt.9 you can contact me from thıs fb adress thank you
What is the HP Supply used ??
That makes a AWESOME bug trap.
What type of material is the torus (toroid)?
greetings from Mexico
nice work, portable on 24 volts:)
keep up the good work!
is it safe to touch spark with hands ? or it will kill ya ?
why do all those flashes look like made by aftereffects??
Top class!
Fatto molto bene....Complimenti
That is beatiful.
I'm makin gone myself, it will be my first tesla coil ever :)
Is this a solid state? where is the tank circuit?
wow this would be the perfect bug zapper xD
but yea nice job on the tesla coil
@sprogdiklis ive touched the output and because of "skin effect" you wont even feel it.
plz tell me how did u make this awesome Tesla coil ? please reply ..
Kegyetlen jó :D Grat. Remélem én is megtudom csinálni. Ki kell próbálni
Great background music
very good tesla.!!!
please help meee...
i need to make one of this for my physic class but i dont know how..
please tell mee !!!!
Whats the song in the backround?
Szép munka, grat hozzá!
@tbsys31061
no.... put high voltage low amp's like say 1 Milli-amp across your heart and you'll be fine........i aint trying it though
It's fine to touch. Just don't touch ground at the same time... Or. Do.
para que sirve?? what is this for??
@s28400 Snow (hey oh!) by the Red Hot Chili Peppers .
tem algum vídeo ensinando como fazer? alguém poderia me indicar um vídeo?
Is it safe? I mean, the lightnings are 24V too?
@BCQD4 no it's not nearly that simple:/ he probably has some kind of an oscillator
a tesla coil does not NEED AC to work most tend to run of plused DC
That was very good you know?
I belive that it is the safety gap
@spencertron88 you wont FEEL pain but it could SEVERELY damage your nerves
No
...aand what is it good for?
Надеюсь, удастся повторить подобный аппарат
Im not quite sure euro, since it is DC and not AC. I would not recommend anyone touch it, since it would give a hell of a shock! This is a transformer that take 24 volts and turns it into 200000 volts! Thats equivelent to a stun gun!
Awesome! Great work :)
Where did you find the circuit diagram
please will u say the procedure to do it sir or madam
@thechosenhacker Or pulsed DC current.
incredibly nice! any plans available?
is it dangerous?
how much Ah is those batteries ?
how long thy last ?
Ez nagyon jó :)
what do you thunk or do you
What frequency does this run at? Thank you!
Yeah, but there's about houndred thousand volts coming out of that toroid...
ITS BATTERIE POWERED!!!
verry cool and cute
Not only awesome but f*cking awesome! Fawesome!
Are you using the fan as an oscillator?
+Davis Watson FUCKING LOL
how many amps
how did you make that toroid?
touch it!
super
P.S. nice torroid :)
