- A monster Jacobs ladder, powered by a resonated 14.4kV 5KVA pig.
Power: ~ 13 KW
Primary: 254V - 340V @ 30A - 40A
Secondary (resonated): 14.4kV - 21kV @ 600mA - 1A
In the garage, the ladder was 4ft from where the arc traveled, Outside the ladder was 8ft high from where the arc traveled bottom to top.
DO NOT ATTEMPT!! Thanks for watching! - Наука та технологія
Very well done mate! I did like that, thanks for showing the meters! Lots and lots of amps, quality video mate. I need something like this for my channel really push the thunderbox, above and beyond its limits! Stay and play safe, and be careful... :-)
Thanks Kyle, those meters are fun to watch! Glad you liked it, I hope to make more vids soon, thanks and stay safe as well, the thunderbox can bite! Cheers;)
@@VariacManiac Sadly it does not bite enough. The 3P 60A variac im gonna order certainly will give me enough BITE! :D
@@kylebishop6233 Nice, Excited for that!
Mmmm, that was
gorgeously fizzy!
Hmmm..... 13 kW you say?
Now, it does make me wonder if........
...... 20kW or even 24kW could be achieved with four gold transformers and a 75A 3ph variac?
All owned of course by Mr. Photon. :D
I will have to write to him about that. :D
As you know before now, he has done a similar Jacobs ladder in his back garden with two gold transformers and a 28A variac (which complained and blew its brush) and it is probably that video which inspired you to try out your rig to see how fizzy it could get. :D
So, it makes me wonder if Mr. Photon was to get his large motorised 3ph variac going and attach four gold transformers to it, if he could pull-off a 20kW+ Jacobs ladder?
I know that his transformers can give a good 200 kV+ of voltage EACH, so if he were to parallel four of them, could he get a nice phat 20kW arc going?
Yes, this needs to be looked into.
Take care, have a good one, and all the best for 2019. :D
There will be many more vids coming up on *_Wayne's Electrical_* in 2019, and there will be evn more VIDO EXCLUSIVES, so do stay tuned for those.

That's what I've thought about as well, it would be cool if he did, I'm sure he could easily! Indeed I was inspired! The copper pipes were a good idea, they don't melt or burst into flames when this hot arc is applied, hoped you enjoyed, all the best for you in 2019!
super nice
Thanks!
awesome ladder variac maniac. have been to busy with other projects I do miss faffing about with electricity play safe all the best for 2019. a think my videos are on my old you tube channel this is a new one
Awesome, thanks Andrew, all the best for you in 2019 as well, cheers man!!
That looks amazing keep up the cool vids awesome meter action.
Thank you Raks Electric, glad you enjoyed!
Very impressive, best I can do is around 1ft using a neon transformer, though that does tend to melt the rods after a while. Must get some stainless steel rods and try to get a longer one.
Cool! I used to have an NST, but I put too much voltage through it, lol!!
Dang! That's awesome!
Glad you liked it!!!!
Nice hehe
Thanks sir Carter!
13kva through a 5kva pole pig. Hmmm, maybe I'll be able to pull 25kva through the 10kva pole pig I just got then.
Oh, these things are brutal, they'll take a lot!!
pigs can take 5x their 24/7 ratings for several minutes. Hell for a few seconds you can do without a ballast and do 10-20X until a breaker blows somewhere.
well over 160 volts looks like 16k
That's primary voltage. The output was around 30kV.
Very cool man!
Thanks DabMaster!
@Cody Martell hey
Thats sooo awesome!!!
It is in person, lol! Thanks
