Tesla BoysTesla and Plasma High VoltageScience Projects |
The Projects illustrated on this site produce High Voltage
and High Frequency Power and are extremely dangerous if proper
safety precautions are not observed. EVERYTHING(including air and rubber)
is a conductor when working in this environment. NOTHING is an insulator.
Do not attempt these or similar projects unless you know what you are
doing. The reader/user of the content of this site agrees to proceed
with these types of experiments at his/her own risk.
This site is dedicated to the study of Plasma, the 4th State of Matter. 99% of all matter in the universe is plasma. The balance is the more familar states - solid, liquid, and gas. A type of Plasma is Fusion. Fusion converts Hydrogen Isotopes into Helium and energy which can be used for electricity. The process is a clean and free of pollutants. The commercialization of Fusion will be a big step toward solving the world's energy problems. Our science projects in this area began in the Fall of 2001, when my boys visited a technology museum with their Grandparents and announced they wanted to build a plasma ball. Initially, I told them the project would be something to do in High School or College. After being pestered with "Did you get the Plasma Ball parts?" every day at dinner, I did some research and found that we could build a power supply from an old TV set. I made the mistake of telling the boys one night at dinner. While driving one Saturday morning, they spotted an old TV on the street waiting for garbage pick-up. I was too embarrassed to stop and pick it up and drove by. They screamed at the top of their lungs until I stopped the car and backed up to get the TV. After picking up the first one, I got over my inhibitions and picked up many a TV and microwave oven for parts. The rest is history and you see the results here on our website. Mark Dunn |
