Level 10 High Voltage Marx Generator 100kV Artificial Lightning Physics Experiment Model
Hero Section: Command the Power of Lightning
Step into the shoes of Nikola Tesla and witness the raw beauty of high-voltage physics. The Level 10 Marx Generator is not just a model; it is a spectacular machine that multiplies a humble 24V input into a staggering 100,000 Volts of crackling energy. Watch as the spark gaps ignite in sequence, culminating in a fierce, 9cm arc of artificial lightning. Whether for a classroom demonstration, a science fair project, or the ultimate desktop display for the electronics enthusiast, this device delivers a visual and auditory experience that is simply electrifying.
Why Choose the Level 10 Marx Generator?
- Extreme Voltage Output (100kV): Experience the thrill of high-voltage engineering. Through a clever cascade of capacitors, this 10-stage generator produces a massive potential difference, resulting in thick, loud, and bright electrical arcs up to 9cm long.
- Industrial-Grade Components: Reliability is key when dealing with high voltage. We use premium capacitors rated for 30kV / 2000pF. These high-capacity components are resistant to breakdown, ensuring strong, consistent arcs and a long operational life.
- Transparent Acrylic Design: Science should be seen. The entire assembly is housed between sleek black and transparent acrylic plates, held together by sturdy copper columns. This open-frame design allows you to safely observe the internal spark gaps firing in sequence, demystifying the operation of the generator.
- The Ultimate Physics Demo: There is no better way to explain the concepts of voltage multiplication, capacitor charging, and dielectric breakdown. It captures the imagination instantly, making it a perfect tool for educators and hobbyists alike.
Technical Highlights: How It Works
- The Marx Principle: The generator works by charging a bank of capacitors in parallel and then discharging them in series. This "Level 10" model features 10 stages, effectively multiplying the input voltage by a factor of ten (theoretically) to achieve the massive output discharge.
- Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) Warning: This device is powerful. The discharge creates significant electromagnetic interference (EMI). It is a real-world demonstration of how lightning affects electronics. See usage notes below.

Usage & Safety Guidelines (Crucial)
- Power Source: You must provide your own 24V power supply. We strongly recommend using a Lithium Battery pack, a Lead-Acid battery, or a Transformer.
- Warning: Do NOT use a standard switching power supply (like a laptop charger), as the electromagnetic interference (EMP) generated by the arc can damage sensitive switching circuits.
- Distance: During operation, keep the generator at least 3 meters away from household appliances (computers, phones, TVs) to prevent interference or damage from the EMP.
- Safety: High voltage can be dangerous. Do not touch the arc or the device while powered. Use with caution and adult supervision.
