Leon the output on a 9cm secondary is insane. And those fatty, 1Hz arcs are gorgeous.
Thanks Jay!!!

*You're Cap, Teslaundmehr.*
Cant wait to see this coil in the 3D printed Gun!!!
Me 2 !
already looks great
Wow, the size of the sparks you're able to get out of that tiny little coil is amazing! I was not expecting that either! This is such an awesome project. Looking forward to part 3!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that!
Great Job Leon!!! I love how compact is the PCB, awesome !
Thank you Gianni :)
Leon, my compliments to you man. I wouldn't have thought that this awesome little coil would give such fatty arcs. Insane man, just insane!
Thank you so much! really appreciate that!!
That's great result, everything seems tweaked pretty good and the low BPS output is real nice and beefy from only 1000uF! It's a great build all by itself without even putting it in a pistol enclosure. Those little cores also work great for the ZVS I'm gonna try those since the TV flyback cores are a little too big.
You may have mentioned this in the video but I was wondering how Q3 turns the ZVS off unless you just meant to put it directly to the gates. The voltage divider for motor feedback and to control ZVS voltage is pretty neat also I can't much think of a better way to do it. I guess theoretically a similar setup using higher voltage switches could charge a cap to over 600V before discharging and it would only take a few seconds. I remember when briefly playing with a ZVS fed setup there were some interesting variations in the output depending on the interrupter settings and the speed at which the bus cap charged. All that aside the general layout and design of something like this being put into a printed frame of that size is incredibly difficult. I'm already just curious how everything minus the ZVS portion would work running from straight 240VAC, it's one of the smallest thru-hole packages I've seen with driver included and we already know it works really good with such a small coil. The other setups I've seen with similar output were using a dual resonant primary so I guess that's yet another possibility where secondary feedback may work to the circuits advantage. Either way I'm picturing maybe just the addition of a fan and minus the ZVS it could fit in an enclosure so small it could literally be hidden within the bottom portion of a 4" PVC forming the secondary.
Hey Bro,
thank you, I really appreciate it. You are right, Q3 is not optimal. In the next version I will pull the gates of the mosfets to ground via a diode by a transistor. That is much more efficient. I have very little space for heatsinks and fans, so I will probably install expensive SIC mosfets. Even now the IRFP460 stay only handwarm. The bridge rectifier remains cold, which is from a switching power supply and designed for high frequencies. But on the PCb is only a half-wave rectifier consisting of UF4007. In the new version I will use a full wave rectifier. Also I will install a flipflop ;)
@@Teslaundmehr Sounds legit. With flip flop you probably could just toss a primary cap on for testing but as-is it doesn't even seem necessary. It puts things in perspective with such a tiny circuit and coil that has the same output or better as so many other much larger builds including my own lol. The tiny stuff is my favorite, I doubt I can make them as small as yours but I'm def gonna start messing with tiny half bridges and some kind of boost stage.
That's insane man, you should try going full bridge or try making a 12v battery version of Labcoatz's QCW circuit. I'm currently in a sponsorship with PCBgogo too, so it's fun to see that they've already worked with you. Also that last outtake was hilarious hahahaha.
How much time did it take you to get to this level of knowledge in electronics?
I just discovered your channel not that long ago and already I find it amazing the stuff you've built is better than mine
Thank you!!!!
Wasn't expecting so long arcs with that tiny power from that zvs :D that was nice
Thanks!
Oh yea, and does your bridge rectifier get hot? This was always a problem for me running a ZVS over 20khz or so, I'd have a big voltage drop and losses using a 60hz rectifier so maybe you can further increase the charging efficiency using big faster diodes.
Can I use(DC12-24V ZVS Coil Driver d Flyba Driver Module with Ignition Coil High Voltage DC Power ply Repla ent for Tesla)
If you mean connecting directly to the primary coil, then this will not work, since usually these modules have a frequency of 20-50kHz, and the coil in the Tesla should work at resonance, and even if you just put your hand into the field, this will create a specific capacitance and the resonant frequency will float away . The modification of a regular ZVS Flyback into a Tesla coil is called RbSSTC. If you mean step-up transformer, then yes, you can.
Those sparks are huge for just 14.8 volts input!
Really good job Leon! It’s amazing how long the lightning’s are ! Can’t wait to see the next video:)
Thank you so much, really appreciate that!!
Hi Leon Good work! I know this is an oldish video and hoping you get any further with this ;-) just a quick question the capacitor you connect at 7:16 does this not now make it a DRSSTC with secondary coil feedback? this capacitor would play a big part in getting the good output that you do from such a small coil can i ask what value this capacitor is please? thanks and keep up the good work !
Yo can you plase make a tutorial and the connection diagram for this thing this is absolutely insane :O
I mean only for the coil and the connections not for the gun
Amazing output! 😮
und du verdienst eigentlich viel mehr Likes 👍
hab dich locker seit 5-6 Jahren abonniert und finde bisher alles super.
Dein "EMP Jammer" hat auch schon wunderbar funktioniert (bis heute😉), ich glaub jetzt wirds Zeit mal ne neue Teslaspule zu basteln.
Hey,
danke, das ist wirklich sehr lieb von dir! Und freut ich zu hören das du schon lange dabei bist!!
Love the result you achieved so far!!!!
Thanks!
hello brother Leon! First of all, thank you very much for sharing your beautiful projects with us and very grateful for your time dedicated to teaching us your wisdom. I want to tell you that I have finished printing all the pieces you shared. I need to know if the diagram to assemble the electronic part has been uploaded somewhere to be able to download it and continue with the Tesla Gun. Otherwise tell me how I could get it from the diagram. Thank you so much. I send you a hug from Argentina.
Hello Léon, thank you for this impressive work.😍
I would like to build this Tesla coil
Is it possible to have the plans and the list of parts?
Do you have the schematic in Gerber file form?
Hey Leon
Was ein geiles Ergebnis für die Größe
Verkaufst Du deine Boards eigentlich auch?
Grüße Markus
Really awesome!! I'm a Tesla Coil lover and this is very very nice to see:) my congrats!!
Thank you Bro!!!
8:46, can you provide information on what is required not to get shocked? is it not be grounded, frequency, or not being in contact with return path? Where can i find this information?
Wow, great results! What is your actual mmc capacitance and voltage rating? And what top current in primary did you get?
150nF and 600VDC, I dont measured the current yet, but I will do it!
The thing definitly looks good
Thanks Bro!
Leon Hi, Im Jona from holland, i want to know one last thing, on the schematic it says vd, next to the primairy coil, with three pins, right? what do i attach and how? is it just plus minus and ground,pls help me out so I will make it and so i can show you my results, maybe you have a link from another schematic that looks like this one? THx anyway!!
Невероятные жирные длинные разряды достойная работа мастера ⚡⚡⚡⚡👍👍👍👍
Спасибо, я очень ценю это!
This is thebest tesla coil I have ever seen
Hey, could you please make a video on mosfet drivers? Like those pesky tc4420 just keep popping and they cost more than a good mosfet sometimes, so maybe its worth a try?
Good idea!
@@Teslaundmehr thanks a lot :D, also the thumbnail looks like it works well as a qcw sstc, cant wait to see it
This is excellent, please make more videos!!
Yes!!
So will you be releasing a finished gerber set and all other parts? be awesome to build one for Stem sessions in Schools, as its a bit hard bringing the big coils
Yes ;)
@@Teslaundmehr Awesome Mate
Freu mich schon auf den 2. part.
Pure awesomeness? - Pure awesomeness!!
Can you give me the circuit
Holy shit man you're a very smart guy wish you were my friend.
Oh thank you, I think you are also a smart Person! ;)
Dude congrats on getting such a complicated circuit to work!
Thanks!
How is your secondary coil grounded? And how will it be grounded in the final tesla gun?
Human operator is connected to the LV end
That is very impressive.
how many pieces were on your pcb?
How much current does it draw from the batteries?
You could consider turning off the zvs via a Schmitt trigger instead of using a whole Arduino
Good Idea, but I will use the Arduino also as Interrupter ;)
@@Teslaundmehr then I understand why
How did you make the topload for the coil?
I bought it at the High Voltage Shop ;)
@@Teslaundmehr Oh cool, thanks I didn't know that existed!
Exellent job!
Thank you!!
I can't wait for the tesla coil gun
me too ;)
Best channel ever
Thank you Bro!!!
Great work !....cheers.
Thanks!
Hallo, sehr coole Tesla-Spule! Könnten Sie den Quellcode für die Platine teilen? Ich wäre sehr dankbar, ich möchte auch so eine süße und kleine Tesla-Spule sammeln.
Can Leon the circuit work in CW?Show a video
I think for CW we need more power ;)
holy from 12v???? thats nuts
Haben Sie einen Discord server für Fragen?
No ;)
@@Teslaundmehr schade
How many amps is that driver drawing?
round about 10Amps
@@Teslaundmehr Hello, I'm sorry, can you give us a Gerber file of this coil?
If you want more subs, get rid of the loud music.
woow nice!!!
Where do you connect the bottom of the secondary coil? Can you also share the arduino code?
It is connected to ground, I will publish the Code when it workes ;)
@@Teslaundmehr ground as in the battery negative?
@@diegokoivukangas6461 I will use my Body ad ground
@@Teslaundmehr so it’s not connected to anything else in the gun? Just goes to your body?
@@diegokoivukangas6461 yes
Einfach Hammer ;-)
Ja oder ;)
Gooooooooooooood
Much to improve on soldering skills.
Sorry to hear about the death count, wish I had your stock tho
I use cheep one from Aliexpress ;)
@@Teslaundmehr How are the specs ? Almost all parts I ordered a while ago are out of spec. Higher than specified Rds and gate source capacitance
Wow its so powerful but its so hard to build
In future I will publish the PCB, than building is easy ;)
@@Teslaundmehr Thank you but how much does it cost
@@Teslaundmehr Later I would like to make a youtube channel on the tesla reels, you can help me please
Best💯
Thanks!
The ending😆
haha it was hard :D
@@Teslaundmehr you nailed it😄 can't wait for part 3
Challenge Accepted.😏😉😎
I will now make myself a thor/iron man power giving suit of techno armor. Because bored. 🤷🏾♂️ And Global Domination goals and all that. 💁🏾♂️

yo @tesla
Clickbaity title considering the voltages you mentioned, easily disregarded
Haha :D
Sprich doch deinen Kanalnamen deutsch aus. Spricht doch nix dagegen :)
alter... mehr kann man dazu net sagen :)
hehe danke ;)
Wow, nice :D
Super awesome coil!
The ZVS Inverter worked much better at supplying the circuit than I expected. Did the Voltage regulation via the Arduino work as expected and were you able to set a certain voltage?
Hey,
Ich antworte dir mal auf deutsch ;) danke!!! In diesem Video habe ich die ZVS mit der Eingangsspannung reguliert. Von 6V bis 12V via Netzteil. Den arduino werde ich doch nicht zum regulieren der Spannung verwenden. (Der ist relativ störanfällig, ich mag Programmieren nicht etc). Deswegen verwende ich jetzt mittlerweile ein Komparator (LM311) und kann mir dem die Spannung von 50V bis 300V regeln ;)
Id love to hear more advanced theory on ZVS design. I started way back before IGBTs and the like and since returning to the it's seems technology has moved so fast I can keep up.
