Tesla's Coil

Tesla coils can produce extremely high voltages, typically ranging from 50,000 to several million volts, depending on the design and size of the coil.

These high voltages are achieved through electromagnetic induction, where an alternating current in the primary coil induces a much higher voltage in the secondary coil.

Large, high-powered Tesla coils used for demonstrations or experiments can generate voltages exceeding 10 million volts, creating dramatic electrical discharges like lightning bolts that can span several meters.

Despite their high voltage, Tesla coils generally produce low current, which is why their discharges are less lethal but still dangerous if mishandled.

They are often used in educational settings, high-voltage research, and entertainment displays.
