Coil genius Nikola Tesla has always been an essential symbol of mad scientists. The biggest Tesla coil in the world to be in the New Zealand city Kaukapakapa. It is noteworthy that it was built is not a mad scientist, and filmmakers, and connoisseurs of art.



Giant reel called "Electrum" has 4 floors and a total length of construction is more than eleven meters. This art project has been carried out on the initiative of the prominent art patron Alan Gibson, who has installed a giant spool on his farm. The author and the chief architect of the sights made Eric Hor, while the technical side of the project was put on the full high voltage engineer Greg Lea. It is noteworthy that the coil Thomson can provide power to 3 million volts, which is enough to snatch electrons from air molecules.



The greatest impression is given to those who will be able to sit in a spherical cage at the top of the coil. However, as a rule, the place is already occupied engineer Greg Ley, who likes to watch the discharge gipervysokoy power. Arcs, which depart from the coil, would instantly killed anyone, but spherical Faraday cage protects Leia.



The fact that "Electrum" is the largest of the existing coil, does not mean that previously did not create even greater. In 1903 he built Nicolas Thomson 18-storey coil Vordenklif on Long Island. Unfortunately, the coil had to be dismantled before the start of its full functioning due to lack of funds.
