- In this video I tried to so how to tune a ZVS Tesla Coil
This is hard to cover everything but I tried to do my best and know I probably left some things out. This Took longer that I thought but hope this helps answer some people question about zvs coils.
Below is how to make the ZVS Driver to run a Tesla coil there is a schematic in this video and how to make it play music

A master class on Tesla coil tuning!
That’s a very good video covering things difficult to describe in a written description. Tuning is key to get this to work well as you very clearly demonstrated. Bravo on a great video covering this interesting class of driverless Tesla coils
Thank you so much 😁👍⚡️it's a lot to cover tried my best to explain some of the important aspects of tuning ZVS Tesla Coils👍👍
Here is one 😂😂 have more but this give you a idea czcams.com/video/K0tg2ov5tBc/video.htmlsi=r7i6vP9-G_FwRWHT
Thanks!
Thank you!!😁👍⚡️
Oh my goodness, this just came into my feed. I will have pen and paper to figure out my mistakes and build a working model tomorrow! Thank you for creating such helpful content! I'll keep you updated on my progress!
Thank you hope this helps went into as much detail as I could may not have cover everything but should help and good luck with the setup!!😁👍⚡️⚡️
@@ArcAngelTeslaCoil This additional content is really helpful. Not just for the ZVS Tesla coil but for all my future builds!
@@shawncalderon4950 thank you very much glad this is helpful 😁👍⚡️
I just learned so much! thank you for taking the time to share
Glad it was helpful and thank you😁👍⚡️
Thanks. Nathan recommended your channel. Subed
Thank you very much 👍⚡️⚡️
That wall of boards is interesting
Thank you 😁👍⚡️
Here is the video of the circuit board wallczcams.com/video/DVo9EaF0Cho/video.htmlsi=pkZoD9QVQAV0I48i
I have viewed over 100 videos on how to build Tesla coils. This one is by far the best! I have screenshotted the video and printed hard copies on my whiteboard. I'll keep you posted as to my progress. Quick question. What is a safe distance between the o-scope and the secondary coil? On a personal note, may I ask your occupation? And where did you get this knowledge?
Thank you this video is mainly dedicated to a ZVS type coil and I'm been a machinist for about 23 years I'm mostly self taught with the help of some friends on my journey. As for the scope it's away good to keep it away from the secondary but probes limit how far you can keep it and some circuits you have to be very cautious with using the ground on the probe best to away using isolation so this is no back feed.😁👍⚡️
@@ArcAngelTeslaCoil Thanks for sharing. Though this is ZVS-focused, the coil tuning principles seem to apply to all Tesla coils. Your machinist skills show in the build quality of your projects.
@@shawncalderon4950 that is correct most on the tuning of primary's of coils are similar. Zvs coils typically don't want more than 3 to 5 turns and helical all though some other coils use helical coil I prefer flat primary's on other types coil like spark gaps and DRSSTC style. Also around 7 turn or more is more ideal on spark gaps and DRSSTC. Thank you for your kind words😁👍⚡️⚡️
I finally have this circuit working, but I am getting arcing between the primary and secondary. I added a few coats of urethane to the secondary but still got internal arcing. Any help is appreciated! Great video!
May do more distance between primary and secondary . Probably at least 1/2 distance from the primary to closest point of secondary. Also if you have deep arc on secondary or got any carbon tracks then you need to redo the secondary it's hard to stop ones it starts. Sometimes you can sand it out but depends how bad. Hope this helps and thank you😁👍⚡️
@@ArcAngelTeslaCoil Thank you. You are right about the carbon tracks. Thankfully, I was using an acrylic cylinder for the primary. The carbon trails scorched to the acrylic barrier and not the secondary. I increased the distance between primary and secondary, and it worked perfectly! Thank you!
Your videos are great. I want to build my own tesla coil, but not having driver and such. I want to make my first tesla coil, with huge arcs. Any tips? Pls help.
Thank you ⚡️This would be a good start look in the description. Also there are a few websites you can check out. loneoceans.com/labs/

May I ask what the inductance of the primary and secondary is? I have purchased the same components used on your ZVS driver. Instead of 1/4 copper tubing, I am using 12 AWG wire for the primary. I seem to be missing the total capacitance from the rows of dark gray mkp caps.
Coated wire isn't so good because harder to tune and can heat a little more but the inductance isn't so important as the length of wire. Length determines the frequency but there are variables like I mentioned in video were your tap point from one side to the other can act like a turn as adding or taking away I would stick to 1/4 in tubing. Not saying it won't work be will be easier 😁👍⚡️
@@ArcAngelTeslaCoil Gotcha! I will pick up some 1/4 copper tubing,
May I ask for the dimensions of your secondary coils used in this video? Thank you!
The main one I used is a 4.5 x 13 wound with 32 awg magnet wire. The overall pvc is about 15in
@@ArcAngelTeslaCoil thank you!
@@shawncalderon4950 your very welcome 😁👍⚡️
What would you have to change if you wanted to push more power into it?
Well you can get a bit better results out of this with better tuning and pulse power. Still working on a better switch the 260n and 260m are great switches. Here is a video showing better performance have a couple other videos as well czcams.com/video/Wd1qQYDkVAw/video.htmlsi=SAWNQWIGLU2-HggD

How is the o-scope probe connected to check for oscillation?
It's scoping the air and picking up the secondary like an antenna have a video that show how to check secondary frequencies and you can use JavaTC it will get you close. You want a secondary to be around 240khz to 300khz

@@ArcAngelTeslaCoil I saw a thin piece of copper wire protruding like an antenna from the positive lead of the oscope probe. Does the o-scobe negative lead connect to the earth's ground?
@@shawncalderon4950 that is correct and no the ground is not connected to anything
