Tesla made his skin glow bright red like a neon sign.Would you say that by using extremely high voltage with extremely low current, the capacitor plates would still be shorted out on the lifter?
You might recall the wonderful stage appearances Tesla made when he walked between all those high voltage low current flashes...His audiences wondered why in hell he wasn't burnt into a crisp..
Nobody knows how he did it.
air doesn't glow red when ionized.
the currents of neon signs is lethal.
wasn't any electrical arcs either. just bright glow.
