Last video of the year everyone! This is a DIY high voltage build that is dirt cheap and easy to make. Please leave a comment, I love reading comments from you guys! To test your capacitor, Take a high voltage transformer and connect a spark gap to both ends of the secondary coil. Then hook each lead of your capacitor to a spark gap electrode. I recommend an NST for your Transformer type.

Thanks for the video. You'll be way over the 1K subscribers soon. Congrats!

Make more videos! Keep up the good work!

New one coming Wednesday!

I did this, and glued the sheets tight to the foil and it eventually arcd through... only of a 24v zvs driven flyback, maybe about 3kv output

@jordansimmons5538 9 месяцев назад

You definitely want maybe 3-5x more dielectric sheets. They are not manufactured for surface purity and have some microporosity and irregularities.

@samueldavies646 9 месяцев назад

I bought some thicker page protectors, didnt glue the sheets and it worked perfectly off 34.5v input to zvs :), with only 2 layers between foil so same as video@@jordansimmons5538

What is the difference in the spark with and without the capacitor?

@raulperez5697 3 года назад

Wow i was thinking what i could do with my zvs high voltage now i now

@SpectrumDIY 3 года назад

That's pretty awesome, I wonder if you would run a tesla coil from a bank of those...

@theplasmaprince8651 3 года назад

You absolutely can! These caps have a capacitance of about 8 nF, so you can run a Tesla Coil with a 4 of em in a series parallel arrangement, hope that helps!

@SpectrumDIY 3 года назад

@@theplasmaprince8651 wow that's way better than I expected, thank you so much for the information! The Tesla coil I built is only one of the kits(video on my channel, but it isn't that great honestly), but I really want to build one from scratch. I've already got one MOT🤔😅

@theplasmaprince8651 3 года назад

@@SpectrumDIY Great! Now all you gotta do is determine the wattage of that MOT, and buy another microwave at your local thrift store that has a similar wattage! Although MOTs have very high resonant cap values, so the DIY cap in this video would likely not work that well with it (even in series parallel with other caps). It would work better with an NST or ZVS driver. I dunno, maybe you can give it a go anyhow!

@@theplasmaprince8651 Fair enough 🤔 Might work, might also go down in a glorious fireball of sparks and smoke😬😅😆

Do you know the value of the capacitor?

Holy monogamy Plasma Prince! U've created a HVC!! congrats!

@oli3641 2 года назад

how many volts is the final power bank

@theplasmaprince8651 2 года назад

12,000 volts, but I powered it with a variac which means the voltage going into the capacitor was much less than that, closer to 5,000v required to power the capacitor I'd say.

@deryckthompson3652 3 года назад

Its a big NO NO Working on a carpet due to the static electricity.?

@theplasmaprince8651 3 года назад

Well static electricity is not very dangerous at the scale we usually experience it as. What you see here is actually current electricity, and is much more dangerous. The electric shocks you can receive from a capacitor like this one are much higher capacitance than the shocks you get on a trampoline. So the carpet is not really an electrical hazard for experiments like this one, but I would definitely work on a surface that is not flammable. If I was you, I would work on a plastic table if you can.
