I've actually built several tesla coils like the one shown in this video. Although they are still impractical for powering homes, they aren't as dangerous as Jem makes them out to be here. While filming one of my tesla coils for my youtube channel, my dad accidentally got zapped by a few hundred thousand volts. He was fine. I have actually touched smaller tesla coils while feeling very little pain and no lasting damage.

Wireless power is far less efficient than wired power and generally people leave the wireless chargers switched on constantly, meaning they are probably using 10 times more power than if they had to plug in a charger. Hardly good for the environment and we are short of electricity as it is, so perhaps we should develop these solutions a little more before offering them to the public to avoid huge waste of a precious resource????

right capacitor loses electrons overtime even they are plugged in by giving the capacitor a pulse like sawthooth it will refresh overtime
@MKhurramAziz
@MKhurramAziz 8 лет назад
More modern wireless chargers detect when a device is charging with them by detecting the current flow through the primary coil, and turn the coil off when there is little to no current draw. However it still pulses it every few seconds to detect whether a device is present or not, otherwise it would never turn back on.
@kardredren

"precious little power loss" is an extreme exaggeration when it comes to power distribution by cable. There are HUGE losses, but compared to Tesla's "wireless" transmission, they are small.

Officially, they're metricated - but with exceptions. Also I think it's a lot like Switzerland where the official language is standard German ("Hochdeutsch"), but everyone keeps speaking Swiss-German ("Schwyzerdütsch") because they're special snowflakes…
@ElNeroDiablo
@ElNeroDiablo 8 лет назад
Officially Metric, Informally Imperial. That's how most of the UK (especially older segments of the population) and even parts of Australia are. I grew up post-Metrication here in Australia, but I still use Imperial measurements when chatting with family at home (where I learnt it initially) and with Americans online.

@G8tr1522
@G8tr1522 8 лет назад
Okay, well I did my fact checking. Not LATE 1800s. MID 1800s. JC Maxwell published his groundbreaking equations in the early 1860s. I'm sure you mean something else besides electromagnetism (eg, moving a magnet to make electricity in a coil). Because they're known that for that long.

because the circuit "automatically turns the electricity on and off", you don't need several windings of coil. All you need is one big 'hoop'.

Never connect a battery to a transformer with a load (as shown @ 02:50) it is highly dangerous for the transformer, the load and the user.
@io504
@io504 8 лет назад
It's not really a transformer though, more like an inductor. I wouldn't say he was doing anything dangerous here - aside from the tesla coil
@danb3584
@danb3584 8 лет назад
+io504 it's exactly a transformer, the only difference is that it uses air instead of metal to transfer the magnetic flux from the primary winding to the secondary. In this case it's not that dangerous but trying it with a transformer (that has an iron core) is dangerous even with smaller batteries.
@danb3584
@danb3584 8 лет назад
+io504 as for Tesla coils, the voltage is of high value but not the current so it has the power to create a big electromagnetic field around it but it is of low intensity. Not so dangerous for people (at this scale) but a hazard for electrical equipment (especially digital equipment)
@io504
@io504 8 лет назад
It is a very low current on average but the current spikes can be quite high. Combine that with the RF frequencies that tesla coils produce and you get some pretty gnarly nerve damage - you wouldn't feel any pain but could lose feeling in your arm (or anywhere the current flows) for the rest of your life
@danb3584
@danb3584 8 лет назад
+io504 oh. Interesting point, the value of the harmonics current can be big. Don't know the frequency or value of the current though.

@Cythil
@Cythil 8 лет назад
Yep. What I view as the main issue with broadcasting energy like many of these solution are doing. (But works great for certain applications when you having a very short distance.) Of course you can rather then broadcast the energy focus it. That was the idea behind those space based Solar Arrays. You would use Microwaves or Lasers focused in a hotspot to transfer the energy. Though the receiving station might actually be huge depending a but on what technology that would be used.
@frosted1030
@frosted1030 8 лет назад
Cythil Focusing the energy sounds like a good idea, but it's purely "line of sight" and requires energy to focus the energy (meaning you will never get away from thermodynamics, there will *always* be loss).
@Cythil
@Cythil 8 лет назад
frosted1030 Naturally you will always have loss. But depending on what frequency of electromagnetism you could make it more or less absorbent. You could actually send energy though walls. Anyway if use in for space based solar arrays for example then you would have to weight the pros and cons of the different technical solutions. It is however pretty much the only efficient way to do it with space based solar arrays.
@frosted1030
@frosted1030 8 лет назад
Cythil Space solar arrays ONLY work for societies that are willing to give up flight of any kind. One accidental flight into one of those beams and (poof). The other issue is obvious, it would heat up the atmosphere directly. There's an international ban on weather manipulation like that.
@Cythil
@Cythil 8 лет назад
frosted1030 No. You can simply fly around such a beam down area. And there lot of areas where planes do not fly over today for one or the other reason. Also as I mentioned you can tune the beaming of energy so not have any huge effect on the atmosphere. In fact that would be what you want to do to make it more efficient. So the effect on the weather would likely be less then what a coal power plant or a hydro power plant effect the weather today.

What did he accomplish that was greater than Einstein?
@BrokebackBob
@BrokebackBob 8 лет назад
Mark Scott Well of all of Tesla's great contributions to the world in a practical way, which one would you think that I might start with? Einstein provided leaps in our understanding of the universe around us which are immensely important but from a practical perspective, Tesla beats Einstein. So take a guess.
@MarkScott1
@MarkScott1 8 лет назад
BobEckert56 Einsteins work has directly impacted our world. Laser, GPS etc. To be honest, I wouldn't like to be without either of their works so I would have to conclude that they are both as important as one another, but thats just me.
@BrokebackBob
@BrokebackBob 8 лет назад
Mark Scott On second thought, maybe you're right. :-) I am such a Tesla fan man since he developed alternating current transmission which powers nearly everything in the world. He did this with George Westinghouse's financial backing another hero of mine. They both prevailed thank god over the pseudo inventor of the light bulb, Edison.

@TheHuesSciTech
@TheHuesSciTech 8 лет назад
Ever considered that some things can be adequately explained in more than one way? When someone comes across an interesting alternative view of something (e.g., the power in a coaxial cable is 'carried' in its dielectric), and then turns around and tells everyone that thinking of the wiring carrying the power is "wrong" (even though the maths works out just fine and its a vastly more useful model most of the time), they reveal themselves to be somewhere inbetween a pedant and an idiot.
@amojak
@amojak 8 лет назад
only as frequencies increase does power begin to travel on the outside, DC current still goes through the cable as demonstrated by measuring the I2R losses .

We're ambimetric we can use metric or imperial as required. There's no easy way to express the idea of 'a couple of feet' or 'an inch or two' in metric units. On the other hand metres and yards are generally interchangeable so it's two hundred metres to the corner shop.

Nikola Tesla was not "slightly mad". He was just as depicted by the general public, who did not understand his inventions. And as we know, if the "majority" something is not understood, it automatically is strange, because breaks with certain standards. For most were among the professors and scientists who rejected his brilliant ideas. All the bankers of the time he blocked funds. This man was a physicist, a more experienced virtually than Albert Einstein. He had a photographic memory, he spoke six languages. Nikola invented the radio, alternating current, laser radar, wireless communications, weapons based on the stream of particles, brushless induction and synchronous motors, wireless control, electrical works and much more. He was the most brilliant man of modern times. So please stop spread this propaganda.
