Fun with Cascade Multipliers(Crockoft/Walton)
All of these video captures(hence the low image quality) are of a 25KV cascade with it's original input being around 8kv, I used a 9kV NST to power the thing. Unfortunatly the multiplier died, but not before I got some good video and pics. There will be video in the video section of these as soon as I can get a proper capture.

This is a spark about 1" in length, repetition rate was pretty good.

This is a spark about 2" in length, repitition was slower than 1"

These are 3" long sparks, fire rate was pretty slow.

Another shot of the 3" long sparks :)

This is about a 2.5" spark(if you could see it). the cascade was connected to a 9000pf cap.
