Hey scott, i do have to say from the time it took you to go from 50k to half a mill, you deserve this. you actualy put time and effort into your projects and they have given me many ideas for other things i could do, never made them but i am going to make an auduinoless minifridge as i dont have one. great work and lets see you hit 1 mill!
1) Get soda bottle, make turbine w/ many little vertical slits, bent outward. 2) Mount on wood scrap with bicycle spoke as axle for bottle to turn. 3) Find legacy hard disk drive that use magnets, open, remove disks, tap into voice coil (coil that moves arm back and forth over disk platters). 4. Attach reciprocating linkage from soda bottle to hard drive arm to have wind move arm back and forth, keep voice coil in high flux magnet housing. 5. Attach voice coil wires to FULL BRIDGE RECTIF-
I also built a slayer exciter some time ago. You can significantly increase the arc length by playing around with the number of primary turns. I used a coil about half the size of the one you built, but a lot thinner wire. It's a great project to play around with, but you also need to be a little careful. I burnt my fingers countless times while grabbing or touching metal objects near the coil. It will wirelessly transfer its energy into you and everything near it. I also got it to play simple music by interrupting the power supply at the note's frequency.
About 40 years ago I ordered, from a magazine, plans to build a Tesla Coil. When it arrived there were absolutely no pictures or diagrams. All I got were written instructions. I had never built anything like a Tesla Coil before so I fabricated components based upon what I believed the instructions described. I made the primary coil from strips of wood about 30" long and dovetailed them into 4.5-inch circular wooden discs. I used an old chainsaw chain sharpener 120V electric motor. I cut another circular piece of wood about 6-inches in diameter and marked around the circumference 24 equally spaced points. I drilled 1/8th" inch holes through the disc. I then cut (24)-1/2 inch long pieces of all-thread and inserted each into the (24) 1/8th inch holes in the disc. On each end of all-thread screwed on 1/4-inch brass acorn nuts. Then I secured the disc to the motor and mounted it on a wooden platform. I then glued down 2 ceramic sandblaster nozzles that I had previously attached a metal bracket on top of each nozzle. Through each bracket, I drilled and tapped 1/8th-inch holes. Then I threaded a 3-inch long screw through each bracket and attached an acorn nut on the end of each screw. The nozzles were glued down on either side of the disc. By turning each screw I was able to adjust the distance between the acorn nuts atop the nozzles and those in the disc. When the motor was running the disc would rotate between the two nozzles. This was my interpretation of what the instructions described as the make & break circuit. I used a 12,000V neon sign transformer and made the capacitors from 6oz Coca-Cola bottles. The first time I fired it up it produced 3 to 5 foot arcs. Not bad from someone that knew nothing about Tesla Coils.
Im having an exam in electromagnetism in an hour, i giggled when you started explaining how the change in flux of vector B induces voltage in the secondary. Wish me luck!

@@1_and_only_Crjase I wish I could! I watched the process being done on several TCs built by a friend of mine. Here's the basic idea. He used bare copper wire for his primary. Otherwise you must pierce the insulation of the primary wire. To tune, he would make a short (2-3 ft) lead wire out of 14 gauge solid wire, so that he could bend it into the desired shape to suspend it around the coil while testing. The other end was attached to an alligator clip. The loose end is fixed to the (as I recall, it's been awhile!) spark gap output or capacitor output - can't remember which - which ever feeds the primary. The other end with the alligator clip is placed at various locations around the circumference of the primary coil, measuring the output roughly by corona length each time. By making numerous tests while gradually increasing the effective length of the primary, you will see the corona get longer (more in-tune) then shorten again as the coil goes "out of tune". When he was satisfied that he had found the correct location, he would make a more permanent connection to that location on the coil. Spark gap frequency changes coil output as well, so he would make that connection to the coil so that it could be changed again, if needed. That's what I recall!! Be VERY careful when doing this!! One wrong move and you're well and truly "toast"! Good Luck!!
Wiper Motors and or Electric Window Motors work the best for winding coils. They work on 12v and can easily adjust your speed down by turning the Voltage supply down. Most importantly, because these type of motors have a Worm gear reduction inbuilt, the shaft will NOT move at all when the power is turned off. It holds it's place - so you can apply glue or tape etc.
Hey, i suggest you to replace / use by smooth topload capacitor to force the charges to stay an accumulate on top , so increase the spark length ;) I don't recommend to paint the pvc pipe of the secondary in black. Because the black paint is composite of carbon particle that is not a good electrical isolation and can result of internal short circuit between wire (especially if you plan to increase the power ) If you want to increase the performance , use Igbt transistor or bigger Mosfets in a bridge topology (or half bridge), use a interrupter with pulse width modulation. I suggest also to use the tesla coil calculator called JAVATC that is really helpful for desing the coil spec, calculate the coupling ...

explained so well you should teach electronics to children ..you do need to teach safety as a lot of people will touch the spark and not realise they a cooking themselves internally because of the high frequency
the dude you could do the same things with an old microwave transformer, a couple of nails for a spark gap, some capacitors, pvc pipe, and a lot of copper wire
Just be a little creative, you don't have to use those exact items to wind your own coil. You could use a drill and put together some assembly to hold it.
Hi GreatScott. Thank you for this an other fun project again. To increase output power you can maybe use litz wire for primary coils since ~400kHz is a bit high frequency for using such thick cables as primary.

Thank You for the video. Why does the coil have such large diameter? Won't the flux linkage be better if has lesser diameter. And also lesser amount for copper wire would be sufficient for same number of turns if the diameter was lesser right?

you should spray polyurethane varnish on your 2nd coil. when it gets warmer in your room, the copper stretches, and the windings will fall down. this happend to my first coil. greetings from germany ;-)
I couldn't get my teenagers interested in doing a mother / daughter project with me this summer - until they watched a few of the Q&A&Cs with me. Putting a face to the voice really broke through to them. It helps personalize the information and make it less intimidating.
Dimitrije Krstić When you induce a voltage to a bigger coil (in this case the secondary coil) the voltage will increase. But more voltage with the same current as in the primary would mean more energy/Watt. You cannot create power out of nothing. So in order for the voltage to increase the current/amps must decrease. Lets assume you have 12v 1A running through the primary coil. this means a total of 12v * 1A = 12W. Now lets say the induced voltage is 2000v. So if you had the same current it means that you have 2000v * 1A = 2000W and this would mean 1988W are created out of nothing. But because the induced voltage is higher, the current has to decrease. So if you would induce 2000v this means a ratio of 2000v / 12v =166.6. So the primary voltage is multiplied by 166.6 at the secondary but the current gets divided by 166.6. So you would have a maximum of around 1A / 166.6 =0.006A. And then your body has also a resistance. And because the high frequency the arcs won't jump into you but they will flow through your skin to ground because of the skin effect which will only lead to minor burn marks on where the arc has hit you. But you won't feel an electric shock because no electricity flows through your body. (I hope my english makes sense)
is it necessary for the coil to me made from a single wire ? I tried joining wires but the Tesla coil doesn't work. maybe because of the sharpness at the joining points
When joining the wires I reccommend making a western union style joint and soldering it, then putting a small amount of cyanoacrylate or other plastic based glue or varnish over them. Clear nail polish would also work good.
you can power it with the 230v ac or at low voltage dc. I recommend trying it at low voltage, the worst thing that could happen then is that it won't run. I powered one with a 9v battery and even this worked slowly.
Keine Ahnung i tried to use 220 v ac (normal plug electricity ) it sparked and smoked (like electrobooms videos) have you got better suggestion? I also tried 19v 4a DC and worked really slow
Technically, the turns ratio of an actual tesla coil has little to do with the produced voltage - a lot of people have this misconception and end up with extremely tall, narrow secondaries, which perform very poorly. You want a ratio of about 1:2 to 2:9 diameter to height for a good coil, and that raio of course depends on frequency, magnetic geometry, coupling, and topload capacitance. I recommend trying a different circuit than the slayer exciter. A good step up might be something like steve ward's "Mini SSTC" design with a secondary current feedback transformer, That will work a whole lot better than the original antenna feedback. (A more careful secondary winding method might be advantageous as well, so you don't have overlaps and gaps which could cause internal arcing and destroy the coil.)
I think you should have used Copper pipes in replacement of the PVC pipes. You don't want any plastic in the mix at all. That will prevent current from flowing effectively. Also make sure you use a metal that is like steel or iron for separation between pipes and copper wire. I would try 10 gauge or 12 gauge wrapped 3 times over.
3d print the secondary pipe since PLA has a very low dialectic constant. The lower the dialectic constant, the better the efficiency of the coil. Wrap your copper wire around pla and watch the sparks fly with less power.

at a distance of 90 degrees.
This was a good video.
Not everyone is perfect, you try making weekly videos for as many subscribers as he has and keeping them interested see how hard it is there are going to be mess ups no need to be rude
@@LukeDeGraff1 My friend I am not being rude.
I was just saying that he said 9 instead of 90. I know how hard it is to keep entertained these many subscribers. And I know that mistakes could happen.
535k subscribers?! i thought that he has little over 100k, watching him since 20k
I000 new subscribers over the last 2 days alone.
JoraForever 538k now!
1.28 million subscribers, nice.
explained so well you should teach electronics to children ..you do need to teach safety as a lot of people will touch the spark and not realise they a cooking themselves internally because of the high frequency
This is perfect. Everybody has a washing machine motor and a 3D printer just lying around.
the dude you could do the same things with an old microwave transformer, a couple of nails for a spark gap, some capacitors, pvc pipe, and a lot of copper wire
Viper vids gaming plus He's talking about a coil not a nuke
Just be a little creative, you don't have to use those exact items to wind your own coil. You could use a drill and put together some assembly to hold it.
Excellent my man Great Scott. First class handwriting and circuit analysis skills.
Regards, Planet X.
Lol, i searched "i hate the antichrist" and this showed up, is it a sign?
Yes.
Slayer Exciter Circuit sounds like a deathcore band name. Metal af bro.
Haha only you would have a washing machine motor lying around
Valid I Do have one and BTW, a metal lathe.
lol
I even have two of them laying around...
I'm barely into electronics and even I have one (well a dryer motor) where I had replaced it.
OKAY IM WRONG JEEZ
I’m drooling at your circuit board diagram drawn by hand
as expected from great scott, amazing!
don't you dare stop posting these educational vidoes, i no everyone loves them!
I have been waiting for a Tesla Coli from you. Love and respect from India.
(Make them really big)
Winding madness indeed...if I only knew I had to master the dreaded tank circuit in school, I could have phoned in my final exam...good times...Liked!
I spent 4 hours winding my secondary
Hi GreatScott. Thank you for this an other fun project again.
To increase output power you can maybe use litz wire for primary coils since ~400kHz is a bit high frequency for using such thick cables as primary.
I LOVE it and NICOLA TESLA would be proud too
You have no idea how long I have been waiting for this
Does it work against blue helmets? Need answers urgently

Call me weird, but this guy writing is very satisfying
Step 1...
Make them really big
GREAT SCOTT! GreatScott made a video about a tesla coil.
You know how to make them blend in with trees?
Love how precise he is
Thank You for the video. Why does the coil have such large diameter? Won't the flux linkage be better if has lesser diameter. And also lesser amount for copper wire would be sufficient for same number of turns if the diameter was lesser right?
Tesla coil works by resonance unlike a normal transformer. So the primary and secondary need not be coupled tightly.
why have i watched this video like 5 times now
We know... the antichrist will fail!
just wanted this Thank you so much
You're welcome :-)
Base And Trance
same here
GreatScott! just waiting for 2nd part
i like your introduction theme song, straight from 80's
anther great work , i know that you are working hard to make something special like this
keep moving :)
That's one hell of a DIY project.
Step 1
It's about time you made a tesla coil video
"Common Washing machine motor that I had LAYING AROUND"
THIS MAN HAS SO MANY THINGS LAYING AROUND I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF HE PULLED OUT A NUCLEAR WEAPON IN HIS NEXT VIDEO
Greatscott!: i have couple of house laying around to use the nuclear weapon.
Well your comment made me laugh
Ah yes, the brilliant work of a perfectionist.
Can u make a magnetic levitating rail like in a bullet train?... Pls...
I put it on my to do list.
:o
Hihihhihihihihu Jdhwosjgka :'O
you should spray polyurethane varnish on your 2nd coil. when it gets warmer in your room, the copper stretches, and the windings will fall down. this happend to my first coil. greetings from germany ;-)
good point
Can I use this method to build bigger ones?
A musical tesla coil next, please! Keep up the amazing work! :)
Can you shut off NANOTECHNOLOGY mind Kontrol military grade v2k?????please help me from America....they try to make sexual slavery!!!!
Does anyone want to see a Great Scott style H-bridge for say a wiper motor?
like if you agree.
Great project, the hammer time comment was pretty funny. I didn't know you guys knew about MC Hammer in Germany
Hi, when will we get our next Q&A&C
Please do reply me :)
Not sure yet
These are our favorites!
I couldn't get my teenagers interested in doing a mother / daughter project with me this summer - until they watched a few of the Q&A&Cs with me. Putting a face to the voice really broke through to them. It helps personalize the information and make it less intimidating.
kewl
if i had your talent my robots would be ruling the world by now :P very nice video like always
Great!
High Voltage+Danger=Perfect For UA-cam.
lol..........
A Tesla coil can't kill you because there's not enough amps, it'll just hurt really bad if you get shocked by it.
MOM ITS NOT WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE how do you know there's not enough amps
Dimitrije Krstić When you induce a voltage to a bigger coil (in this case the secondary coil) the voltage will increase. But more voltage with the same current as in the primary would mean more energy/Watt. You cannot create power out of nothing. So in order for the voltage to increase the current/amps must decrease.
Lets assume you have 12v 1A running through the primary coil. this means a total of 12v * 1A = 12W. Now lets say the induced voltage is 2000v. So if you had the same current it means that you have 2000v * 1A = 2000W and this would mean 1988W are created out of nothing. But because the induced voltage is higher, the current has to decrease. So if you would induce 2000v this means a ratio of 2000v / 12v =166.6. So the primary voltage is multiplied by 166.6 at the secondary but the current gets divided by 166.6. So you would have a maximum of around 1A / 166.6 =0.006A. And then your body has also a resistance. And because the high frequency the arcs won't jump into you but they will flow through your skin to ground because of the skin effect which will only lead to minor burn marks on where the arc has hit you. But you won't feel an electric shock because no electricity flows through your body. (I hope my english makes sense)
PyroHacks nice
I like how you have a "Common Washing Machine Motor" just laying around. Btw I love your videos!
is it necessary for the coil to me made from a single wire ? I tried joining wires but the Tesla coil doesn't work. maybe because of the sharpness at the joining points
Normally, this shouldn't be a problem, as long as you don't change turn direction.
When joining the wires I reccommend making a western union style joint and soldering it, then putting a small amount of cyanoacrylate or other plastic based glue or varnish over them. Clear nail polish would also work good.
45 minutes ago, this was uploaded. Good morning Sccot
How long was the wire you used?
pi x d x 1200 Turns = l
If you made the secondary coil with a smaller diameter pipe you could have way more windings for the same amount of copper wire.
we have you surrounded come drink your corn syrup
I HATE THE ANTICHRIST I HATE THE ANTICHRIST!
i love your portable monitor project
can you tell me the washing machine engine's voltage and amper ? I have same engine but I don't know how much it needs?
please reply
S S google it...
or go to appropriate forums...
jan harald I already done but I could not get any right information that's why I'm asking
you can power it with the 230v ac or at low voltage dc. I recommend trying it at low voltage, the worst thing that could happen then is that it won't run.
I powered one with a 9v battery and even this worked slowly.
Keine Ahnung i tried to use 220 v ac (normal plug electricity ) it sparked and smoked (like electrobooms videos) have you got better suggestion? I also tried 19v 4a DC and worked really slow
i think you broke it with the 220 AC
Technically, the turns ratio of an actual tesla coil has little to do with the produced voltage - a lot of people have this misconception and end up with extremely tall, narrow secondaries, which perform very poorly. You want a ratio of about 1:2 to 2:9 diameter to height for a good coil, and that raio of course depends on frequency, magnetic geometry, coupling, and topload capacitance. I recommend trying a different circuit than the slayer exciter. A good step up might be something like steve ward's "Mini SSTC" design with a secondary current feedback transformer, That will work a whole lot better than the original antenna feedback. (A more careful secondary winding method might be advantageous as well, so you don't have overlaps and gaps which could cause internal arcing and destroy the coil.)
2019??? Anyone
No one, ok
Fantastic! Scott, try using a big heatsink in the top of the Tesla coil. ;)
6:21 lol by commencing Hammertime
I think you should have used Copper pipes in replacement of the PVC pipes. You don't want any plastic in the mix at all. That will prevent current from flowing effectively. Also make sure you use a metal that is like steel or iron for separation between pipes and copper wire. I would try 10 gauge or 12 gauge wrapped 3 times over.
really good coil, I made a crystal radio once with much thicker wire than that but it didn't work in the end.
I am feeling really thankful you made this🙌
3d print the secondary pipe since PLA has a very low dialectic constant. The lower the dialectic constant, the better the efficiency of the coil. Wrap your copper wire around pla and watch the sparks fly with less power.
hey great Scott nice tesla coil mine is small the secondary is 400 turns and .15 mm of copper wire and thank you for making my request a reality
You can use D718 transistor, or use irfp460 and a gate drive ic for more power
great scott! thanks for another great vid. i appreciate the maths you show as you explain, i find myself so keen to build that i experiment before performing calculations. thumbs up !
