Singing Tesla coil or musical Tesla coil: This is not a separate type of excitation, but a modification to the solid state primary circuit to create a Tesla coil which can be played like a musical instrument, with its high-voltage discharges reproducing simple musical tones. The drive voltage pulses applied to the primary are modulated at an ...

With the success of Tesla's A.C. system, it soon became the preferred method of generating electricity worldwide. Tesla worked on a number of other inventions, including a transformer that would change a low voltage to a high voltage by means of safe A.C. electric current. This transformer came to be known as the Tesla coil.

A Tesla valve, called a valvular conduit by its inventor, is a fixed-geometry passive check valve. It allows a fluid to flow preferentially in one direction, without moving parts. The device is named after Nikola Tesla , who was awarded U.S. patent 1,329,559 in 1920 for its invention.
This is a modern unipolar version commonly used in entertainment coils, with a toroidal-shaped metal capacitive load E on the high voltage terminal. The primary circuit is shown connected to the primary winding L1 with a variable tap, so that the primary and secondary coils can be adjusted to resonance.
This is a modern unipolar version of the circuit used for entertainment coils, in which one side of the secondary is grounded and the other side is connected to a toroidal-shaped capacitive high voltage terminal. A slightly different form of the circuit, with the positions of the capacitor and spark gap exchanged, is found at Tesla coil 3.svg
