Greg E. Leyh is the principal engineer for Lightning On Demand, an effort to directly explore the physics of natural lightning with large-scale Tesla towers.
We're building a pair of 120 foot tall Tesla towers for lightning research.
Our 40ft high 1:3 scale model coil can throw lightning arcs over 60ft.
We'll bring a 9ft Tesla coil to demonstrate various scientific principles and electrical effects.
