What would be the best song to play on my Tesla coil?
Thunder - Imagine Dragons or Thunderstruck - AC/DC, feels fitting.
I would love to hear Through the Fire and Flames by Dragonforce!
any PINK FLOYD song
Check out my music! Would be pretty cool if you'd play them haha.
I Don't Want To Be-Gavin DeGraw
i love that a lightbulb could be secretly vibing and no one would know
Always have been, at either 50 or 60 Hertz depending where you live, you can even make a light vibe to the internet if you connect it on the same network as an Internet Over Power thingie
It's called Li-Fi, we looked into it for our office. It is a wireless signal being transmitted by the overhead lights. We looked at that tech several years ago. It's been out for a while.
I want to see this being used in a spy novel to transmit information now.
Not exactly.
LiFi is an idea where you could have something like 40Gb a second of wireless data by using LED lighting that pulsates like this to transmit rather than radio. It would be amazing however it wouldn't work without line of sight, and it wouldn't work if you turned off the lights.
“This device lets you hear light”
That’s gonna make raves so much weirder
I want him to put a blue filter over the light so we can hear what different colours make
@@ashyosings5089 Man, that sounds so trippy. Weird how science can be like that.
I'm surprised the sound quality is that good after so many conversions.
The conversion is good, but the problem is the bandwith of each device, I'm not sure the light bulb is really made to blink that fast. In the other hand the spark has a quite high pitch.
you think the sound quality sounded good?? it was absolutely terrble
@@nonothebot If you thought about the brightness, It doesn't need to go fully on and off. Just vary intensity a little. The electrical analog would be a DC biased sine wave. The solar cell panel would generate a DC biased sine wave signal. Removing the DC bias need only a capacitor. Then the signal passing through the capacitor can be amplified.
@@tormendor8585 I think he was expressing that he expected worse.
@@kreynolds1123 Thank you for this precision. I didn"t think about it but it makes sens.
I wish he taught me science in highschool. Really you make it look so simple.
By omitting many details. But the best principles are simple and he explains them well.
@@jhoughjr1 Not like school science has to go into more detail. It just needs to create an interest
imagine doing this in a 13th century village
lol might get stabbed in the neck by some angry dude w a piece of sharpened wood
STONE THE SORCERER
@@GloGangBruceWayne probably more like burned at the stake for witchcraft.
Imagine playing just music or a recording of a voice.
burn the witcher
Screw beats, you'll see me wearing lightbulbs.
That would be such a dope way to hide a recorded message in plain sight. Have a small hidden tesla coil next to a room's light bulb and when someone turns the lights on, the recorded message signal is sent to the coil which in turn lights up the bulb. All they see is constant light, due to the high frequency, but someone with the right device can get close and decode the light into sound.
Transmitting sound through light is so old that a when I was in high school in the early 90s, there was a project that used an LED to transmit sound (and it was old back then too). One circuit to modulate the LED output from a sound input, and another photo-sensor and circuit to turn the signal back into sound. I went with another project though, instead I made a bug/spy transmitter, that was so much more useful.
This is the basic concept of how Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, etc work. Signal being sent out into general area, but only those whose devices are given the de-coding algorithms can make any sense of those signals.
I find the musical Tesla coil so fascinating! I wonder how much power it consumes compared to a traditional speaker.
based on the little knowledge how most tesla coils are made prob not as much as you would think. Most have a way to step up the power from an outlet. Like a capacitor but a tesla form of it. But thats for like table top type ones like you see in the video. The zues musical teslas i am not sure if its the same concept or not.
@@mitchyitchy3 Musical tesla coil uses silicon conductors to act as a spark gap. The plasma speaker may consume more power but I heared that it acts as a very good tweeter. If the membrane used in tweeter is lighter, it can vibrate air at higher frequency, which is why paper cone is used in tweeter. The plasma speaker uses air so its virtually weightless.
This is like a basic version of LiFi 👍🏻
Okay but seeing light be turned into sound is just something else
Wel that's kinda how radios work.
So it’s a music player but it makes your electricity bill 10x more than it should be
/s
yes
@Unsesquipedalian Yeah, and a Tesla coil of this size is pretty low-power. That’s also why it’s safe for him to sit right next to it with no grounding and with a metal ring on.
@الزمهرير hey wait i think i know you lmao-
@@mbcommandnerd You're technically right, but that's extremely oversimplified and the ring has no effect.
Music major raised by an astronomer/Physics prof here, _this is so freaking RAD_
Nothing major raised by a spanish teacher here, HELL YEAH
Do you hear light?
No, I see sound!
The wireless cable concept was about to made
A hundred year old concept
SilentKnightXD it wouldn’t be possible now... All the tall vehicles (Mostly Semi Trucks) would get caught in the path of the plasma, causing major destruction, making it impossible in modern days... Very advanced back then, though!
@@prestonferry make it T A L L E R
@@pepre7594 that would be too expensive to switch, and it has the possibility of things like catching birds...
@@prestonferry I know I was joking lol
That just sounds like a speaker with extra steps...
No but seriously, this is AMAZING
I’ve been a commercial HVAC technician so long that when a VFD fires up any motor I can tell if it is at 100% 60hz or not. In fact in some cases I can hear the frequency is off a little I know the motor is going bad. When I hear the golden hum noise permitted by the VFD I can tell it is working perfectly; especially in amp range, of service factor of course. Lol
Isn't HVAC our cars Automatic AC?
@@gauravbisht4504 hvac means. Heating ventilation & air conditioning
So how did this tesla coil sound to you, if it was a VFD? Will it survive, doctor?
@@kingsolo6241 makes sense why me car OEM calls it that way instead of A/C.
60Hz is pretty much the low E note on a bass guitar, btw
Me: Mom can I get new speakers?
Mom: We have speakers at home
The speakers at home:
I would exchange my Phillips speakers for this :)
You have the best speakers at home :)
It also doubles as a wireless power source if used correctly.
The energy can never die but you can transform! I love this type of experiment
Your channel is a blessing man
Content like this literally makes me feel good
I got real excited around 7 seconds when you started messing with the power inversion to the speaker! This taught me a lot. Thanks!
this is the best video on TH-cam and has changed my life!
Gotta say, this is one of your most informative video I have ever watched.
That was the coolest thing I have ever seen. that was mind blowingly amazing to see the light converted to music, I rang dat bell and shared the crap outta this.
I wish I was taught this way!! You are amazing!!
Great Demonstration Keep Up The Good Work!
Really I love to learn science practically by you...
Incredible. I can hear the drum and electric guitar. I can't believe this sound can be produced by only a tesla coil.
You have blown my brain. This is amazing.
this gonna be my fav. vid of action lab so far.
That was one of the videos I've enjoyed the most! Very interesting!
This is absolutely mind blowing! Thank you
When you bring your hands near the coil you actually detune it and reduce the 'Q' factor which causes the output voltage to drop. Imagine making a pendulum but with a water paddle. Your hands loads down the output significantly.
He lowkey proved this by 'absorbing' the voltage- technically- HE was the transmitter for a hot second
Great demonstration
Probably the coolest video I've ever seen!
One of your most entertaining videos
You're an endless source of ideas.
Congratulations
The light thing... that's crazy. Great video.
That was freakishly awesome
This should have quite literally millions of views, this is beyond amazing
This video was so cool. I was very fascinated
THAT was one of your best videos my friend 👍 great job
Thanks for the wonderful information
Love the buildup to just explain the last experiment
K, primary reaction... I type in, "can you really make music with Tesla coils?"
And then *this* guy shows up!? I've seen so many of his action lab videos I was surprised to find this guy answering my question. Hot dang.
Carry on.
I love this video!It looks like your a wizard of light,and sound!!!!I already subscribe!
That’s so cool. Thanks for the demonstration. 😃
Very interesting you made my day a bit nicer ❤️
Everytime he somehow makes something amazing happen!
Did anyone else notice how "warm" the sound was when coming through the light source? I wonder if that's a similar effect that creates the love by some audiophiles for vacuum tube amplifiers.
I think the sparks has a lot of high frequency noise and the bulb light acts as a low pass filter
Or it's just the way that speaker sounds. But the coil definitely would sound different considering it's a completely different mechanism for sound production.
Depends on the color temperature of the light.
The light 💡 phosphors will take a (very small) amount of time to brighten and dim to the music, which will round off sound waves, similar to how an analog tube amp is used to smooth (or “warm”) the output from a digital media source.
because it uses an actual speaker. tesla coil is bad at lower fequency.
This helped me to understand music in a much different level!
My mouth is wide open! This is so cool!
Honestly probably the coolest thing I've ever seen
These videos just make me so happy at night
this is super cool man !
THIS BLEW MY MIND
Action lab made my day.😊
Cool video, I learned a lot. Thank you
You channel is so awesome. I love ur content. I always Lear something new and you always show it in an understandable way
This was flipping mind blowing.
Man I love your videos
the best! CHANGED MY LIFE!
Changing sounds to light and changing light to sound! coooool!
This Was Short & Great ! ✌️😎
fantastic video !!!
Nice. Electrifying💪⚡
This is so cool !
This literally looks like magic!
Thank you very very much for clearing thibgs up for me.
This is so unbelievable that I wanna do on my own what you did.
That's super cool.
Thanks.
Luv and Peace.
Wireless Energy Transferal!! I love it!!!
Wow, I'm overwhelmed. Truly everything is just frequency.
Subscribed to Franzoli Electronics for its Musical Tesla Coils and this video came out rn in my recommendations. Perfect!
This guy has the neatest tech I've seen lately. I literally downloaded the strobe light app while the video played.
Yeah, really enjoyed, You are just awesome😝😝😝
great experiment!
This has to be the craziest video I have ever seen. Electricity is magic
TH-cam recommended me this video after watching the AscendTech - Bluetooth Tesla Coil. I was wanted to watch something more about the Tesla Coil and I guess the this The Action Lab video is a great choice to do this.
Very nice experiment
You are a genius
broooo111 you just blew my mind lol I had no Idea! I just built my very first tesla coil and you just showed me a whole other side of it! thank you so so much! =)
This one's my favorite episode.
It's super cool!
Wow... I loved it
Finally no 10 minute stretching! Thank you
Very cool!
The free energy lighting up the bulb is pretty dope too
That was one of the most coolest things I have ever seen..😳🤯🤓
you are really awesome. you are incredible. I call you a scientist.
That's so freaking awesome
incredible!
Amazing!
idk but this is maybe ur best video.
My mind is blown 🤯
Real cool man
Mind Blown... seriously. I this is an original compilation of physics and technology. It really represents the cohesion of nature.
That was cool with the light
this blew my mind
