         No one, including Tesla ever made it work.
         Best indications is that can't be made to
         work, regardless of the 'billing problem'.

         Local voltage field is high enough to ionize
         the gas.

>I know it has to do somwthing with the RF.

         In the case of a Tesla system, RF is providing a
         locally high voltage field.  (The lamp will light just
         the same on an equivalent 60 Hz, 50 Hz or DC field.
         Such fields are uncommon....)
