From: Jojo Jaro * Any suggestions and guidelines pointing us in the right direction will help a lot in coming up with a viable design. Jojo, I see now that an important YouTube video reference, from the same guy who provided the blue light one, was glossed-over on vortex yesterday, and not discussed like it was elsewhere. It is this one, but there could be others that are helpful - as I have not had time to look at all of them from the same person:
http://www.youtube.com/user/magnetvortex#p/u/4/bI7f6E2R_VA This video should not only answer your questions about what is going on with the blue light circuitry (which he cannibalized from a plasma globe) but could suggest how to cheaply built a larger unit-even to beef it up to perhaps 50 watts or so, which is supposedly what Rossi's RF coil is drawing. I doubt that the particular "weird" coil design being used (the unpronounceable name that starts with Kappa) is necessary, but hey - why not? It does not look like rocket science to wind it. If only Rossi could be trusted about the 50 watts ! Jones
