A simpler cousin of the Tesla Coil, is the Slayer Exciter. It's an incredibly simple circuit, that makes thousands of volts, and can produce spectacular results. But this one, is a bit different! I couldn't find a flat, pancake style slayer anywhere - so this was my attempt at making one of the first on KZfaq. I was blown away by the results. #PlasmaNation #TeslaCoil #Maker

pancake coil nice and compact I love it now I need to build one with a 10;1000turn insulated that can handle 30-200kv 1.6kw input I need to get a replacement voltage booster for my zvs I sadly blew it out years ago be for i got into fusion. ill have to do spark gapped with my hv supply I have then see how my plasma chamber handles it. now x-ray glasses on, welding mask down, lead /aluminum positive charge shield up. battery charged, materials gathering, rebuilding capacitor's, coiling wire.......................................................ugh , installing prototype core Fxsit, vacuum system on, battery charged ,high voltage supply on, charge capacitors, prepping fuel intake, filtration system on, fuel system on, shield on, lights off, system is all green....3..2...1..... man I cant wait to see that beautiful fusion glow again but with more power ok I need to get back to winding this coil.. ugh I wont get to see full output till I get the voltage booster replaced.

@PlasmaChannel 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks Ivo. Are you able to create larger sparks at same voltage input, using bifilar?

@MasterIvo 3 жыл бұрын

@@PlasmaChannel Yes a bifilar coil can produce larger sparks, as the capacity of the coil is charged to a much higher voltage (more energy). you just need to be careful for sparkover between the windings, as the voltage difference between them is much higher. I don't generate sparks, as I see it as an entertaining waste of energy. instead I reuse the energy.

Interesting, I've heard that flat coils notoriously suffer from internal arcing. Mayhaps I heard wrong. Either way, very compact! Very pretty!

@PlasmaChannel 4 жыл бұрын

Hi Dayton! Thanks a bunch. Yeah, what's interesting is the flat coil was particularly sensitive to turns ratio. I got these results using 4 turns on the primary. Bringing it down to 2 turns causes open breakout to occur, but the sparks are cold to the touch. No power behind them at all. And they cant be stretched out. Its amazing how much current the arcs carry using this design.

An easy option to combat that would be to immerse the coils in oil or vacuum pot them in resin (second option not as easy but the vacuum is required to ensure the resin fully penetrates the gaps with no air gaps or air in the resin)

@Heads Mess An understandable predicament. I guess I've just been lucky; I've used the same camera for years now. Its gotten up close and personal with explosions, thermite, high voltage, microwaves, etc. That camera is a trooper! P.S. I think we can *all* agree that high voltage looks much better in real life than on film :)

Hey Jay, what is the advantage of Pancake coils over cylindrical coils in case of using them in Tesla coils?

@sauraviotdeveloper7094 4 жыл бұрын

@theelectronmachines 4 жыл бұрын

3:00 yes it would make an electric field, but concept behind that is the primary coil making an electromagnetic field that that would induce a current into the secondary based on lenzs law

Correct. For time purposes, I dumbed it down though.

could you try rotary cylindrical friction static charging capacitor? two cylinders and rollers to transfer charges

J - Great videos! I love them. However in this video you did not include 'all parts' in your all parts list. The spacers, bolts switches, prototype board, the battery holders, the pen style item that you use for drawing the arc from, the pen style hand held item that you used for drawing the arc, and that's to list a few obvious ones. Please send me back a more complete list as my father is a master electrician and as a journeyman electrician I would like to build him one of these pancake slayer devices as a gift for his upcoming birthday or even for Father's day. So please send me a full and complete parts list so I don't have to go through guess work as to what works and doesn't work. Thank you for your time and for your videos. Very informative and creative! Oh, and don't let me forget,very classy!

Bro , Have you experimented with a modified joule thief + magnetic detector? to turn on lamps at a greater distance, it's an idea that occurred to me but I don't know if it's possible

@electrorush7754 3 жыл бұрын

what are the no. of turns in the secondary ,please I also want make it and your all videos are amazing.

@PlasmaChannel 3 жыл бұрын

I never actually measured the turns in the secondary. I rarely do. I wound the secondary and just went by sight, then designed the circuit around it. But, it does resonate at 300kHz and is about 650 feet of wire.

@conundrum2007 4 жыл бұрын

A miniature version of this with the secondary wound around a fluorescent tube starter might make a fairly good UV source. Its not clear how effective this would be but only one way to find out!!

@Slowly_Going_Mad 4 жыл бұрын

That was very cool. I'm with you on the idea that it's not a true Tesla coil, more related to solid state Oudin coil. Interesting nonetheless. Also wondering if that's the same circuit as an arc lighter?

@PlasmaChannel 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching! It definitely is different than the circuit for the arc lighter though. The arc lighter uses a high voltage secondary which does not need to feed back into the primary to trigger it. It has totally isolated secondary windings.

@PlasmaChannel 4 жыл бұрын

Hi David, been quite busy! I tried it right now though, and the flame was mildly drawn to the bridge. It was hard to tell though if it was merely due to regional effects of convection being affected and obstructed by the water, or, if the fire was actually attracted. I''ll have to try agian.
