Inspired by another thread here, I remembered I have a neon sign transformer sitting around doing nothing. Was wondering if I could use it to make a Jacob's Ladder. It produces 5,000 volts: would that be enough? Looking around on the web, all the designs I saw operated at at least twice that.
Hmm; maybe if I get some reeeeally high-voltage diodes and make a voltage doubler?
Any other ideas for kewl sparky-sparky projects that will run on 5KV?
