Second there is no shock to the person touching the water or the wires at anytime. Third, when you short out the bulb with a jumper lead (test lead) the bulb stays lit and the lead stays cold. Forth when you hook a 12V bulb in series with a florescent bulb they both light.

I do not know what frequency the circuit is running as I have found no equipment that works in the presence of the hairpin.

Hi Karl,

I appreciate your efforts and build, excellent work . I'm curious about the incandescent lamps your using with broken filaments, most common bulbs today use low pressure gas inside them like argon, neon or nitrogen and the other group of xenon, krypton and halogen. Could it be possible that just being the combination of two internal light bulb terminals with the high voltage and frequency is igniting the "inert" gas inside the bulb, no radiant energy involved ?

I think maybe the "spark gap" unit may be a RF (radio frequency) metering problem ..... could be wrong .....

I really like your DANGER warnings it's "very" important for this puppy

Best Regards,
Glen
