Over the course of 4 months and with the help of numerous experts, I reverse-engineered and uncovered the secret of the desktop plasma toroid generator. The device is a lamp that looks like an arc reactor! This journey taught me so much about electrical engineering and plasma physics and introduced me to the field of plasma art. I hope you are inspired to learn more about STEM!

@@BackMacSci i think youd enjoy some room temp quantum locking, yes? Get a couple magNets so you can catch a view of something new. .. Soo you’ll need something like a rotary tool/dremel or what have you to do the spinning. Attach the one magnet to the tip of the dremel (or to a bit of some sort. I like using a legit form of uv “glue” or 5second something or other. Basically the stuff used for dental sealants. Anyways the high speed twirly birding gets thjngs on lock and thus you will now get that hover lock magnet coolness. Best instruction number one ! • now see how your twirly bird magNEAT’o! Generator feeleds when it pokes at our xenon halo. Feel good? How are the feeleds? Of good nature and yields? Powerful feel generators for sure.

@@BackMacSci 9:03 i think y'all have a good enough understanding of electrical safety, but having the deadfront off of that circuit panel is dangerous. That dead front stops shrapnel, plasma, and liquified/vaposized metal from escaping the panel in the event of an arc blast, and even though you don't have expose busbar in there, those two lugs at the top have no protection. I'm not trying to insult your grasp on safety but it's just important for me to mention it since I work in the field.✌😁

The behavior in the field of the neodymium magnet seems to indicate a steady circular current in the toroid.

Excellent and inspiring work, thank you for sharing the adventure.

The plasma’s reaction to the magnet resulting in a rotation is almost exactly what I have seen goofing around with an old CRT oscilloscope. Very neat. I would recommend you build one of David Lapoint’s magnetic bowl arrays (have access to a 3d printer?). It should show some compelling effects on the plasma due the the stress it causes on the local magnetic field. If you check out the Primer Fields video series on KZbin you could probably figure out how to incorporate some of those ideas here. Great work!

2022 has be a great year for making and understanding Plasma Toroids. 💜💫 Looking forward to seeing the next steps that 2023 bring in your experiments.

Highly recommend you look at the papers from Ionel Dinu, Lori Gardi (Fractal Woman) and even Robert Distinti. It very much seems like we're getting ready to move into the next level of understanding of topics such as these.

I can't even begin to describe how inspiring this is. The passionate burning curiosity you felt when you first saw that TeslaCoilPro video, is what I felt when I first saw a video by you, "plasma toroid experimentation". For some reason I ended up on a whole journey researching how to build plasma discharge tubes, and came full circle finding the plasma toroid video by teslacoilpro, before really trying to figure out how to do THAT, and finally discovering that all along you had the answers! XD I am deeply sincerely grateful that you've taken the time to document this, so that a layman like myself who is on fire with a DIY maker-mindset can have a shot at doing this myself. Keep it up! Like a vacuum tube energized by a tesla coil, you're tapping into Infinite Intelligence and helping advance the human race forward!

If you do some reading on the helion fusion generator, I believe they may be using similar properties to create their "mirrored" plasma rings that are a crucial part of the fusion process. Very exciting stuff! Great work on the video keep it up.

Thank you Michael! I watched part of Helion's video. I think what I have here is field-reversed configuration too, like you said. But maybe I should have a meeting with them and compare and contrast our devices!

Project idea - mount inductive coils around the lower part of the sphere and drive them with audio circuit to make magnetic fields that will force the plasma donut to move to some dope beats.

The next step up from a single toroid is to build the plasma squatter man. A toroid with polar vortices and a theta pinch in the middle. I have contacted the plasma physicist Anthony Peratt of Los Alamos plasma physics lab and his advice was that the squatter man is produced whenever a high voltage discharge occurs in a plasma. Usually very high voltage. He did not give me specific values.

Cool! Next step: Use an hour glass shaped glasscylinder filled with Xe. Add two toroid genarators. One on top one at the buttom. Make sure everything is very stable, clue it together, etc. (That´s important!) Make sure both gemerators are providing independently a plasma toroid. Than add two cameras facing EACH toward one toroid only. Make realy sure that one camera observes really only one plasma toroid. Again: Important: Make sure that the camera is always at the same distance and has a good view on the observed plasma ring. Use A.I. for EACH camara, or better explained: Feed the two(!) A.I. models independently with one camera feed and the settings of the electronic. Teach the A.I. to change the electronic setting in such a way that the plasma ring is stable and has a perfect donat / toroid shape. Have fun! (And think about to rotate the hour glass by 90°, ..., think also to add some neodym magnets with a hole in the middel, think about using a glass tube instead of an hour glass shape tube, ... there are millions of modification possilbe...) Next step is than to add some more A.I., copper wires and electornic to "fire" each plasma toroid into the middle section of the hour glass at the same time so that they "join" / fuse together ... but aware the radiation. Keep track of this! Welcome in the world of a new fusion reactor approach.
