I built it based on the inventor
Nikola Tesla's original designs.

:53:10
It's an air transformer...
:53:13
with primary and secondary coils
that are tuned to resonate.

:53:17
It's basically a step-up transformer...
:53:20
which converts relatively low-voltage
high current to high-voltage low current...

:53:24
at high frequencies.
:53:27
Do you remember...
:53:29
when we were kids,
you had a little Barbie makeup mirror?

:53:33
Yeah, I remember that.
:53:35
It had a little fluorescent light on it?
:53:39
Nikola Tesla invented fluorescent light.
:53:42
Without him,
we wouldn't have alternating current...

:53:45
radio, television, x-ray technology...
:53:49
induction motors, particle beams, lasers.
:53:53
None of that would even exist,
if it weren't for him.

:53:56
Or the rock band, Tesla.
:54:01
Funny.
:54:04
Tesla was a true genius.
:54:07
If we had paid more attention to his ideas,
the world would be a much better place.

:54:12
We'd have free mass communication,
free transportation...

:54:15
free energy for everyone.
:54:16
That's why they discredited him in the end.
For free energy.

:54:22
He perceived the Earth
as a conductor of acoustical resonance.

:54:30
What a beautiful idea.
:54:35
So, Jack, are you going to show me
how the coil works?

:54:40
Yeah, all right.
:54:44
You'll need these.
