Safety Warnings
Adult Supervision Required
Users under 18 should only use this kit under the supervision of
an experienced adult.
Pacemaker Warning
Persons with electronic medical implants such as pacemakers
should not be near the Tesla coil during operation. EMI from the
coil may interfere with the pacemaker’s function.
Ozone Warning
The high temperature of the Tesla coil streamers causes the
gases that make up air to form other compounds, including ozone
(which can often be smelled when the coil is in operation) and
nitrogen oxides. Keep the Tesla coil work area well-ventilated to
prevent the buildup of irritating gases such as ozone and nitrogen
oxides, which become toxic if concentrated.
Fire Hazard
The arcs from the Tesla coil can set flammable objects on fire.
Keep all flammable objects away from the Tesla coil while it is in
operation.
Ear Protection Recommended
The Tesla coil output is loud! Ear protection is recommended.
Eye Glasses Required
Always wear eye protection while soldering. Power
semiconductors may overheat and fail violently, causing a
shrapnel hazard. Wear safety glasses when working on the board
while it is energized. Only power up the board when it is fully
enclosed inside the chassis.
RF Warning
Keep sensitive electronics away from the Tesla coil at all times.
Use the entire length of the included fiber optic cable to distance
your computer from the Tesla coil.
