Here's a light I made, once upon a time. It's nothing more than some different colored plastic plates I bought at a grocery store, placed holes in the center of, and then stacked on a vertical blacklight. I could vary the power supply causing the blacklight to flicker in a manner that appeared to start at the bottom and ripple up to the top, then repeat, either fast or slow repetition. It made the plates light up in sequence from the bottom, up... kinda reminded me of the 'movement' of the warp engine light from the original Star-Trek, thus the name WARP Light. shades CM

Aw, cute, CM.

Have you seen Mike (as in Mikeselectricstuff) musical tuned discharge pipes? Your contraption reminded me of it for some reason :P

Mikes Spark-o-phone is on his homepage here Link2
Maybe you could couple your device to a HV contraption of some sort, too?

Hrmm, I keep looking at it, and the more I do the more I think about making 1 using HV power source maybe like an out of tune SSTC, and have a backing to hit to protect and hide the HV source. Then either wall mount it or be crazy and ceiling mount it! shades Looks cool though! wink

That is pretty neat. It seems like an excellent novelty room decoration. How bright is it?
