I've been looking at that logo all day today. Can't figure out what that fan thing is supposed to be. What is it? _______________________________________________ ____________________________________

??????????? The Tesla Coil!!!!!!!!!!! Nowadays the Tesla Coil is just a sideshow spectacle with few people doing any serious experiments with it. The cool thing, however, is that he was broadcasting

I guess I wasn't clear in my question yesterday. Yes, I know about Tesla coils. And I understand how the corona in the "oo" and the part that makes the top of the "g" are representative of a Tesla co

I'm sorry, I thought you talking about the entire coil. The thing at the bottom is actually part of the coil, it's the primary or collector. Here's a good picture of a home built coil and you can see

I wonder if a giant Tesla coil would be considered an antenna in Palmdale? I guess I wasn't clear in my question yesterday. Yes, I know about Tesla coils. And I understand how the corona in the "oo"

Andy-- The Tesla coil is really two coils, with the primary usually wound as a flat spiral as a disk at the base of the other, which is a vertical tower. I think that what you are calling a "Fan" is

If Tesla really DID work on fans for Westinghouse, I can't even imagine what sort of Tesla twists he would have put on them. And then again, he may have just added one of those water misters just cau

Bill is right. That's a flat spiral or inverted cone primary, and the 4 "blades" are the supports for the turns. Cardboard on a quick and dirty, some nicer insulating material for others (I use HDPE

First time I ever saw one using the "pancake coil" as part of the transformer. All I have seen just use a larger coil form with fewer turns for the primary. Most also used a few hundred watts into th
