In this video we will be having a closer look at the terrible HV generators that you can get from Amazon or elsewhere. I will tell you why you should not buy one and along the way show you an alternative, which is a HV transformer. With it you can do all kinds of experiments and create different arcs ANANTHASANKAR: Im Assistant Professor in Electronics from india. All of your videos are excellent and very informative Everything is well explained with schematics & design. I really appreciate your hardwork, patience & dedication behind every video

First time I see GreatScott get zapped by super high voltage!
Also fun fact for you: The amazon cheap transformer one I have a bunch of it at home, and these transformer are h! t. The copper wire inside can only hold around 9A and high resistance too! (primary coil is nearly 2 ohm. I burnt three of it just because I short circuit 1. 7kV.
As always, thanks for a very good video!

Great video as always, i have couple of those transformer and a month ago i tried rewinding them and used a half bridge driver to drive it, it produced very long arcs close to 3 to 4 cm but not for long the insulation failed and arcs started flying out of the coils.

For me the high voltage from a cheap bug zapper is enough, once I touched the output with my both hands, It was so much painful. Love that you make a video on this topic.

I mostly use ZVS drivers but I'm not sure that's suitable for my biggest voltage multiplier with a total of 80 stages which should give me 1 million 2, 000 volts

Yeah, dont buy that all in one high voltge transformer that just works well, lets just make this underpowered, full of sticky tape, handicapped one, Great!

I don't believe that the chinese modules output 700, 000V or even 400, 000V.
I think that the nice plasma trails are because of the high frequency.

I have already one of the 400kv setup module I am using it for my tesala coil design can you suggest me some more things I can do with it please sir
reply

Another thing I learnt is that you need to have an oscilloscope to understand these circuits.
Great video as usual btw.
