Hello friends...

Tesla coils anyone? I'll show you mine, you show me yours, we'll have a shockingly good time....

This is an early stage in the development of my pride and joy: the TinselKoil.

TinselKoil 1.0 operating at 1 MHz and 75 watts input power :

I've made some major improvements since then.

Welcome to the forum TK.....nice build on the TinselKoil

Way back before mosfet's we used 807 transmitting tubes (in the 50's). Harold P. Strand published a few designs in various experimenter magazines. I still have about a dozen 807's NOS.

I'm curious...what will be the end result of your Tesla Coil experiments, or where do you hope to go with this?
