The Art of Building a Handheld Tesla Coil
Tesla coils, known for their stunning visual displays of electricity, have fascinated enthusiasts and scientists alike since their inception in the 1890s. Initially conceived as a means of wireless energy transmission, these high-voltage transformers have since become synonymous with incredible arcs and sparks. In a recent project, a Tesla coil was creatively transformed into a compact, handheld device using a rechargeable arc lighter, weaponizing electricity in an innovative new way.
