RE: Ive built my first Musical Tesla Coil!
Holy shit the end result is badass. I love that's just in your garage. Super surreal. I love Steem and I love that you're on it. How safe do you think it is?

Its pretty safe, as long as you dont get too close to it while running! I think the streamers would be enough to deter people away from getting too close, but I can turn it off instantly at the flick of a switch.
The streamers are not the real main danger though, as its very low current. The lethal voltages are on the primary circuit that drives the coil.
I love the phrasing..."oh not don't worry about those lightning bolts, the REAL LETHAL SHIT is over here."
lol, i know how you feel. The lightning bolts do look rather scary, but not alot worse than a tazer gun. the primary coil is much lower voltage but Far higher current.
