- Once upon a time, famed inventor, Nikola Tesla invented a curious little gadget. When he turned it on, it terrified him. He was unnerved when he heard disembodied voices from beyond the grave through his "spirit radio."
This video shows you how to build one from a kit and how to set up your computer to boost the output of the spirit radio and record it for playing on your front porch or for your super-awesome costume party! Maybe even talk to grandma from BEYOND THE GRAVE!!!!!
The video teaches how a radio works and basic circuit design. Kids completing this kit should be supervised by an adult familiar with the tools.
ALWAYS WEAR YOUR SAFETY GLASSES!!!
Thanks to all my Patreon supporters! You make all of this possible.

Teslas radio design was so much larger. Imagine what he was able to hear with his device. The sounds from the this small device was errie, just think what Tesla was able to pick up with his. I can see why he thought he was hearing voices. Interesting after his death the government ransacked his living area and confiscated all his documented works. Thanks for this episode. Telsa was beyond his time.
Agreed. He was brilliant and when the government snatched all his papers, humanity was robbed.
I’d read that John G. Trump (Donald’s Uncle), somehow acquired Tesla’s info/documents/notes and used them!
I am interested in rebuilding his original spirit radio by using his patent, sourcing era specific components, conditions, etc. (I have fortunately recently acquired copious amounts of copper 👍). Does anyone know if the original is on display at one of his museums? or for that matter (I was unable to find)where I might be able to find a photograph of the original ? Thanks
@@thyhandrevolve you can just check his patent on google and ssee how it work and build it
@@ribertfranhanreagen9821 Incorrect.
you take me back to watching Mr. Wizard. so cool
Tesla did not have a computer to amplify anything. I would be interested to know how he was able to listen to it. Are we missing something from the equations. Also, I wonder if a digital voice recorder would process the sounds
Man that’s wild… It’s the ultimate horror movie sound machine! 😂🤣
The banana plug sockets are insulated from their mounting surface, so you really didn't need to make a plexiglass lid.
👍👍 you make my day , but in last you gave us the real vibe 😂
Fantastic explanation on audio hijack and how to use it at 33:34. This video is the best video I have seen on how to make this.
Thanks! I loved doing this project.
I want to know what the original looked like.
I might have watched the whole video, until uncle fester started preaching about safety glasses.
i really wanted to watch this, but couldn't handle being screeched at within the first seconds.
Screeching? LOL You should hear me on the full moon!
We don’t need no stinkin safety glasses.
LOLOLOL
The thing you were calling a rheostat was actually a variable capacitor.
Rheostats are variable resistors.
GREAT WORK BROTHER!!!!!!!!!! Thank you. I was on the right path but it is nice to see someone experiencing the same pangs during construction.... LOL
can you do a other video juste to show and explaine exactly how to conect every componant
plz !!!!
Here is a link from the video description that does just that! I used it to help me put this thing together. th-cam.com/video/DhpJmkiFcFE/w-d-xo.html
@@SciWorx awww man the account was terminated now we will never know :0
I'm so frustrated. I've been trying to make this and I can't see your soldering well enough to make it. Please zoom in while soldering in another video so I can make mine.
You should make one that hooks up to a portable guitar amp.
If you use lexan you don’t have to worry about cracking it when you drill the holes.
Great insight! With the pandemic lockdown, I couldn't find any Lexan for the job.
I’m going to build a large scale one of these connected to a laser communication tight beam streaming the constant message 1-2-3-4 back into the device along side encrypted video,audio and image compressions
THAT is gonna be off-the-hook AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Don't know how I landed here, but I like this guy. LOL. BTW. I made one about 4 times this size and man, it freaked me out way more than the small one did. The only part that sucks is when Tesla created his, there wasn't all the radio, cell and other noise pollution we have now. Been trying to figure out how to filter all that out.
just a question, where do the ends of the wraps that go around the inducter go,
Happy Halloween!!!
Happy Halloween to you too!
@@SciWorx Thank you! I am hoping next year won't be as scary. Hopefully next year more people will listen to scientists.
@@helpfulliving6394 Maybe for next year, I need to build a "common sense radio?"
@@SciWorx Hahahaha
you cracked me up at the end!
Giggle!
I am watching Lord of the Rings. I just realized how similiar your costume is to Gandolf's. I had to come back to this video to see the similarities. Yours is better due to the safety glasses.
The real Gandalf probably doesn't need safety glasses. He fought a balrog without a facemask so...
Where can I buy this kit?
I am thinking of building one for next Halloween but I have one question. Do you have to put it into a jar and if so why?
The jar and lid makes a good way to mount all the hardware. It does look kinda steam punkish tho. My next version will not include the jar.
Unfortunately, I couldn't understand the welding part.
So with the actual Tesla design did he actually use an ball jar? If so what took the place of the plexiglass since it was not invented at that time. Perhaps mica or soapstone?
I believe he used large glass insulators.
mason jar.
I wonder, instead of using a mason jar, how about a wooden box with lid? Add on, somehow a speaker, too? Would that work?
The next version will not include the jar and will use a tad more modern system than the modified crystal radio.
Great Vid ...
Thank you! This last one was fun.
Where is the link
Hello, thank you for this nice video :)
I made the same radio a few years ago, at the time I was using an Imac from 2009 and I could plug the radio directly into the IN input but today I changed computers (Macbook air) where it doesn't there is no direct input and when I plug into a USB plug, the sound is very weak, I used various cables but it does not work well, could you tell me what equipment you use to connect the radio to your computer ?
Thanks a lot
Quick question.. so this device can listen into the electro magnetic field and other similar radio waves. Is it possible to connect a transmitting device to send messages into the emf and related fields? Basically the spirit radio audio receiver in reverse..
Oh yeah!!!!!!
I love your hat lol
Thank you!!!!!!!!! )0(
Do you know if you solder together more than just a ground wire to the audio input ?
Only one side of the audio should be grounded.
i love good instructors but i grew a beard by the time this vid was done.
I have a several volume set of books I picked up in the Telsa Museum in what was Belgrade Yuogoslovia (1980's) and no where does it mention this. Nice story though.
Tesla made this statement referencing this gadget in his 1901 Talking With The Planets, ""My first observations positively terrified me as there was present in them something mysterious, not to say supernatural, and I was alone in my laboratory at night"
@@SciWorx The “spirit radio” or actually the crystal radio was invented by an Indian Physicist Jagadish Chandra Bose around 1894
@@D_Boggs Correct, but I am not using Bose's circuit, I am using Tesla's patent. Bose's circuit is for detecting microwaves. Tesla's is in the ELF range.
What I learned: *safety glasses*
Diet Ginger Ale?!? 🥴
What size drill bit is required for the first 3 holes
Off the top of my head they were 1/8" but I am not sure.
@@SciWorx thanks I figured it out by using a screw gauge reference sheet if anyone else is having trouble , just stick the screw in a screw gauge reference sheet and it’ll save you some time
@@jaysonboes9853 Great tip, thanks!!!!
1/16 holes? I'll pass. Get out the hot-glue!!
how to make tesla radio
Complete instructions! I will do an updated version for Halloween 2021.
@@SciWorx I have redone this jar so many times an updated schematic or closer breakdown would be great because I cant get the darn thing to play sound from the audio jack even after numerous attempts of following the instructions all I get is static and feedback upon touch .. but nothing coming out through audio hijack except my internal mic
@@jaysonboes9853 if I have time, I am planning a much improved version for Halloween 2021.
@@SciWorx oh nice this might just be what the people need , I see I might not be the only one having trouble with the wiring not working , might would help if you show the soldering close up on camera in the next one for those who haven’t taken electronic classes ..... but great video ! You got a subscriber out of me for sure :D
Wow almost 8 min in and we know we need a plastic lid thats round.... Get to the build already.
why not try crystals inside
Interesting but there are better apps available.
the tesla spirit radio they give credit to tesla with isent original as your using a pc sound card that dident exist in teslas time and the tuning capacitor wasent around in his time either except maybe the large metal fin type and the spirit radio is not even listed in the list of his inventions and neither is the real schematic he used just the late version by man useing pc card technology 20th century version
Of course it isn't original. The original version had an earpiece and I want the viewers to actually hear what is going on. Further, I used the software to show people how they can use the Tesla Spirit Radio to make soundtracks for halloween parties or to trick out their front yard Halloween decorations.
Lastly, I provided links to Tesla's patent and the article where he mentions the device.
This year I will be making another version, but be forewarned, I will be modernizing it even more.
You bsn bruh. All them dif voices and screaming
🤣😒
the video might not be to bad if your focus was on your project instead of trying to be funny. your embellishment on Tesla's reaction when he heard the sounds added nothing to your video.; lets just say this was 40 min of my life i will never get back.
I want to know what the original looked like.
