Jul 17, 2014 at 18:57 | comment | added | Carl Dong | OK, I understand. I may do a test in safe areas (say, labs in school with EMI shield, or where there are no sensitive equipments around) with lower energy level. | |
Jul 17, 2014 at 16:37 | comment | added | Mishyoshi | It depends on the powe, the shielding and legislation... In Canada, it is legal as long as the EM doesn't exceed standard EMI interference specification at a range of more than 5m. No the Tesla coil doesn't work the same, but you can use a Tesla coil's flyback/resonant converter to charge your capacitor. You can detect a breakdown and stop it right away if you want. | |
