Re: Tesla Receiver Coil



Original poster: Ed Phillips <evp@xxxxxxxxxxx>

"Hello all,



Just like every Tesla Coiler I love to make the big sparks, but I am
really more interested in broadcasting electrical energy. I have
built a receiver coil with a variable capacitor and tuned it to my
Tesla Coils resonate frequency (about 200kHz). It can light two small
incandescent 14 volt bulbs from 5 to 6 feet away. Is anyone else
working on something like this!?



Thanks

Mark Barlow"

	I don't mean to knock what you've done but at that distance you're
still in the induction field of the coil (significant mutual inductance,
even it's small) so you're not really "broadcasting".  Probably similar
to Tesla's demos at CS.
