Abstract

For years, amateur experimenters did not even try to duplicate Tesla?s rotating egg experiment. The power and capacitance requirements were believed to be formidable. Surprisingly, the experiment can be powered with nothing more exotic than a modified induction motor scrounged from an old household appliance.
