I wonder is there's a way to hook this up to a laser for dat dank laser induced plasma channel
It's cool
It needs some form of marker for it to jump to, to increase the range
Also needs dem amps pumped up to kill

This shit is the worst kind of meme. Totally useless against bio targets.
However, I suppose that with the rise of drones that this kind of thing could become a viable counter. But even now all our shit is properly grounded and ESD hardened. So I doubt that would even matter.

You could have it coaxial to a handheld but powerful laser, yes, and it should theoretically follow all those free electrons.
I'd first try some form of portable motor that you could throw and then shoot at it with the Tesla discharge; it should join up with the motor as long as it was emitting.
>>32176903
You could pump the amps and kill anyone that the discharge touches, though.
You'd need to be wearing a rubber suit so it doesn't kill you.

Would having a bipolar tesla coil discharging between the diode of a co2 laser work?

Then what was the point of grounding himself with the little shoe device?
soon?
>>32176919
Not how electricity works senpai.
I'm an ECE student. This shit is my major.
Assuming that's a classic Tesla style flyback-transformer, that shit wont have shit for amps. At most it would hurt, and thats IF you could find a way to get it to travel through someone's body, which it wont, because that's not the path of least resistance to ground.

Other guy doesnt know what he's talking about.
>>32176971
that game is the one of the reasons I decided to follow this major lmao.
MORE TESLA COILS.
>>32176929
Sure
The discharge would favor the laser over the surroundings and you, and travel along the laser as theory states
I don't know the specific wavelengths of the laser needed, but the visible spectrum would be what the discharge needs
>>32176976
There's nothing saying you can't pump a discharge machine/Tesla coil to the needed 100 amps to kill a human
>>32176961
Just in case
Even low amps can potentially stop your heart, it's just not all that likely
>>32177017
Nigga what the fuck are you talking about.
>>32177027
basically this.
What kills you is throwing off the rhythm of the heart beat, not really the "power" across the body.

Interesting. One more Q
What was the deal with that second stage of arcing during the slow-mo shots, where it was like they suddenly grew tree branches? Is there any significance to that?
t. clueless anon
>>32177146
Could you give a time stamp anon? I'm actually working on a project and cant be arsed to watch 11 minutes of this shit.

Oh. That's what happens when it gets an ionization path large enough to dump all of the energy stored in the secondary of the step-up transformer all at once.
You see how it was like a slow creep along, then suddenly it grows? At a very, very high level, its a bit like opening a valve slowly and having it suddenly open under the pressure.

another interesting thing you could do if you're interested is check out this guy: https://www.youtube.com/user/Photonvids/videos
He's pretty fucking nuts.
This is a good video to start with: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4aI2Oiz1ps

Thanks. This is neat as fuck
