    Simple electric arc, spark gap.

    Thanks, was very helpful, I think I might try 120VAC instead of 9V battery. The gap could be very very close (like 1-2mm). Just needs to light up when someone pushes the button. Doesn't need to stay on for long either, that's why I was thinking battery. Interactive art piece.

    Simple electric arc, spark gap.

    Still need capacitor and inductor values for the circuit. If anyone out there has made electricity jump a gap between two points with a 9v battery, would appreciate a diagram with values for resistance, transformer, and capacitors.

    Simple electric arc, spark gap.

    I am making a piece of art. The piece requires a simple electric arc, before I go spending a lot of time experimenting with different transformers and capacitors I was thinking that maybe someone already had a valued diagram of this project. Remember just a simple arc. I understand the spark gap...
