Hello,
To anyone visiting South Florida, West Palm Beach area, our "underground" / "backyard" Turn Of The Century Electrotherapy Museum is open to all. Here we have antique Tesla Coils dating back to 1897, hundreds of glass plate negatives of Tesla Coil and electric discharge photos, and thousands of hand-drawn blueprints from the 1920s - 30s.
We have currently several original Tesla speedometers and paperwork from the Waltham Watch Company; an original 1892 lecture; Tesla obituary; a wealth of items from the (official and original) Tesla Memorial Society, Inc.; hundreds of books, pamplets, and magazines on medical and X-Ray Tesla Coils.
We also house original antiques and reproductions built in our turn of the century machine shop of Tesla Coil pioneers Thomas Burton Kinraide, Thomas Stanley Curtis, Frederick Finch Strong, Earle Lewis Ovington, William Benham Snow, Herman G. Fischer, Charles Campbell, and many others.
Our research includes forgotten technologies relating to Tesla Coiling - Pancake Coils, special Tungsten Quenched Spark Gaps, Electric Discharges, "Phantom Streamers", and Static Electric effects from Tesla Coils, Poulsen and "Singing" Arcs, Carbon Arc Lamps, High Frequency X-Ray Machines, Diathermy, etc.
If you are in the area and want to see some obscure areas of Tesla Coiling history, give us a call!
