Nikola Tesla exhibit, Vancouver (stills & videos)
BackI wear a suit and tie! Gah! The small travelling exhibit from the Beograd Tesla Museum made a stop in downtown Vancouver BC, at the BC Hydro corporate offices. See http://www.teslavancouver2006.com/ During the opening we performed the dry-ice-high-voltage demonstration of the particle streams (possibly) the phenomenon behind his "Death Ray" claims. Video footage also includes "egg of columbus" and other Tesla devices.

Uh, oh man, I wanted to see more of that tesla coil. It's the most interesting looking small coil I've seen, not as messy looking as the others. I wonder what kind of transformer that is. looks like something from a stereo system...

As far as I know, that TC was built by the Tesla Museum in Beograd Serbia. The power transformer looks like an un-potted neon type.
Also I noticed that the huge current pulses are slowly eating a slot across the narrow neck of copper foils leading to each capacitor plate. Same fissure-growth effect as with CDROM in microwave oven.

That's an advertisement for a website about magicians and special effects. It's a video trick. If you don't believe that they're tricking you, then try building the device and see if it works.

Of course it is, its just an example of Tesla's light wall effect and teleportation. Seriously though, check it out and read up!

A genuine device would be cool. Don't build a huge one, then throw one half in deep ocean! The water pressure miles down would create a terrible weapon. Or stick a steel I-beam in, then turn off the power. It's perfectly snipped in half. Sell them as the ultimate metal saw! A billion dollar invention. You could cut battleships in pieces. Or make sliced ham or titanium foil by turning it on and off rapidly, then push a block.
