Hi, I'm studying the useage of Tesla Coils as a means for cheap lighting
systems and I was wondering if anyone has done any work on this, in
particular I was wondering if anyone established what an optimum frequency
would be, has anyone experimented with a bipolar coil, because from what I
can tell,  I should be able to run a wire from near the end of the coil to
the end to the flourescent tube and ground the tube back to the coil by air.

Thanks, Conrad von Zirkwitz
