Hi!
I'm going to make a tesla coil.
I have checked many websites and it seems quite simple, altought all they are made for US 140VAC and seems to be too powerful.
What I need is a 220VAC way, but I don't need that much power, I quite need enough power to light a LED or well maybe later a light bulb.
Are there better ways to make this project to not spend that much money (on transformer and capacitor)?
I don't understand the notation well, because we don't have a grounding (only some do), all we have is a minus wire.
If I use something like this: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipe...0/Tesla_coil_3.svg/496px-Tesla_coil_3.svg.png
where does the grounding for the secondary go?
Also, how does it work? (where does the magnetic field flow and where does the electricity form)
