6,000V / 2.4 kW Power Supply 

Nice! I've never had MOTs make arcs that hot or violent before.

0:00 the guy on the right i know him he is from tkor/the king of random his name is grant and he died 3 years ago. The exact clip is from a video he made 10 years ago that is called Lethal Electric Arcs (MOT jacobs ladder)

and that's why i got into electrical engineering

I was expecting the arcs to be much larger with 3 transformers🤣

Good for Mouse or rat trap. Can increase your electric billing.

Great explanation of ballasting. My degree (*many* years ago) was in EE, but I didn’t know offhand that shorting the secondary reduces the inductance. Is it a matter of driving the core into saturation, or does it somehow have to do with back-EMFs?

im wondering why you used another mot to limit the current rather than increasing the pfc by putting a cap in parallel with the mot

Would you be so kind to share links/books/courses that would help anyone learn the things you have to know how and skills to be able to build these inventions. I teach high school engineering and looking for quality content to share with my students. Thanks!

Why without resonance??

i am trying to get around 60-90kv. i have a microwave transformer. i think that a cockroft walton multiplier wont work because it needs too many stages. does anyone have any suggestions please? i also have a flyback transformer, but it outputs dc (i cant remove the rectifier circuit from it so i cant use it, i dont think). any ideas would be really really appreciated!

I think it would also help if you put the two MOTs in series instead of putting a third in series. In my experiments it worked, but, i also have 230VAC instad of 120VAC, but, i think it should also work.

Feels like some words of caution would be nice to have. Otherwise, great channel.
