O_O Tell us more!

Loved the smell of ozone; Coat hangers make an excellent, if temporary, Jacob’s ladder display, high voltage will jump damned near any gap if the air’s ionized or even just heated up - but DON’T use a Bic lighter to do the heating, as the arc will hit the metal and cause a mondo fire in your hand!

Also, remember that you must never close the arc-gap completely, or you’ll fry your transformer.
