I officially have a plasma toroid generator on my desk that can run indefinitely--no more heating issues. Engineered Labs Shop Join the mad science blog of magic_plazma : SCHEMATIC AND TUTORIAL: Inspired by @magic_plazma on Instagram: Follow me on Instagram and TikTok for more science experiences! @backmacsci In this video, I explain how a plasma toroid is ACTUALLY generated, show you the experiments I've done over the past few months, and build a new, smaller, simpler, prettier, more efficient device based on Steve Ward's circuit and test it out. It was a lot of fun and my future research into the device will be using different gases like @kcakarevska to produce different colors and cheaper designs. Imagine we make one with low-pressure air and it looks like the aurora borealis, and the whole thing costs only $100! You can all join the plasma donut club then!
