Gaussfest 2021

Electronics, Music, Tesla coils

This bonkers event was organised by Extreme Electronics at Papplewick Pumping Station in Nottinghamshire. One of the few venues where Odin‘s full power can safely be deployed…

Check #Gaussfest on Twitter for more 🙂

Odin set up in the boiler house. All steam powered, no EMC worries 🙂

Tapping into 3 phase 415V supply

Can you identify the tune being covered?

More importantly, can YouTube’s content ID algorithm?

Look out for Mike “Electricstuff” with fingers in his ears

Boiler house switchboard… Yes my setup moved the meters 🙂

Mmmm, asbestos

This generator was a bit too small to power Odin 🙁

This one was too big

My performance did actually use about 10kW

An event like this would not be possible without defibrillators and a tea room.

Looks great Steve, good to see that the Odin coil still gets some trips outside the storage and could you please do a post on your setup on the desk. Looks very interesting with your mixers and homemade controls 🙂
