Homemade Tesla Coil || Build Your Own Tesla Coil

Unlike a common transformer (like the one in a cell phone charger), the Tesla Coil doesn’t just depend on the number of turns between the primary and secondary windings. It depends on magnetic resonance.
For the discharge to occur, the primary and secondary circuits must be at the same frequency. When the frequencies match, energy is transferred extremely efficiently to the secondary, raising the voltage to thousands of volts.
❓ *Fun fact:* One of the most viewed images of Tesla shows him calmly sitting in a chair, reading a book, while gigantic high-voltage lightning bolts explode around him.
Although Tesla wasn’t afraid of electricity, that photo was a “double exposure.” The lightning bolts were photographed first in the dark, and then Tesla sat in the chair with the lights on to capture his image.
A daring act to promote science. Tesla knew that to change the world, it wasn’t enough to have the best technology; it was necessary to capture the public’s imagination.
