What Paul, you want me to justify why I am starting this thread, again.....
this is a place where I am starting from, the plasma from the Globe.

Take a look at these. The globe has been discussed. I point out the two circuits interlocked by a transformer which all need to resonate one with another:

Howd ya do that?  Did you make a run to Pepboys?  =]

So it does work

Hey Wilby
I tried the lil plasma globe and it wasnt enough to light a bulb, tried a couple.

i think it works because i'm an idiot (according to some of this sites knowitalls).  nope, i didn't make a run to pepboys

yup it works, but shouldn't we have about 40 more pages of speculation by milehigh, grumpy, poynty, marco, yucca, etc. about why it doesn't/can't work?

edit: my plasma globe is wall powered, 8' globe (approx) and the bulb will not light if the globe is not removed.

Thank you for the Plasma Video.  I too have monkeyed around with a Plasma Lamp, and the best I could do was light up a 4 foot long Fluorescent Bulb by holding it in my hand and touching the Plasma Lamp with one end of the bulb.

I never tried your spark plug spark gap, which is a great idea.  Try wrapping some aluminum foil around your Plasma Lamp and fasten your wire to that.  That worked best for me for maximum output.

You mentioned that your capacitor voltage went up and down.  That is because only AC comes off of Plasma Lamps, and Caps need DC to charge them up.  So maybe you should try placing a Diode in between the Spark Plug and Capacitor.
