This world works on the basis of the masses submitting to the few. I believe that while the individual has the best interests of his neighbour at heart, submission is obsolete because peaceful coexistence would be the order of the day where each esteems the other.

Rounding of surfaces
Ozicell
What you have done is unreal, it's great, it's fantastic.
I wish I could do this stuff, but lack the knowledge, equipment and skills.
I'd like to help in some way (maybe) and
put this "on-the-table" as food for thought.
(on the back-burner?)
Plasmas wish to self-organize into a vortex.
The vortex preserves the energy of the plasma
(see Link
how energy is retained in turbulent systems that self-organise).
The rounding of surfaces will help this occur.
Let nature help out, remove the edges?
I know, it's easy to say but hard to do.
I can't find it again now, but I came across a conventional
sparkplug that did use some rounding which prevented carbon
build up.
The point isn't the carbon build up but the vortex aids in
total combustion.
An hourglass shaped hole in the top of the cage.
Maybe lopsided with it being a tad larger on the bottom side.
Half dome shapes work very well in creating a vortex
and they do not have to be prefect.
Removal of the inside edges of the cage should help preserve
the plasma and overall combustion later.

Be wary of words ending in "ISM" and those that use them.
Most which apply to people and/or groups divide us.
If divided we don't stand together.Remember to be kind to your mind ...

Nitrogen

You're right but it's almost inert!
Nitrogen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Certainly for the type of testing under pressure that I am doing, nitrogen is far more stable than just compressed air.
Thanks for your comments though

Residue
Ok guys, you are probably wondering where I am at with testing. I found a way to test my plug in the pressure chamber under slight pressure safely. Simply, I put jet nozzle against the inlet of the chamber and let her rip. Although as much air as went in also came out, in the process a slight pressure build up occured. The plug noticably displayed better with this method than nitro but here's the kicker......... with nitro - no burn pattern but with compressed air........ you can see the difference in the pic below. Cheers

Burn Pattern
"The plug noticeably displayed better"Does that mean you saw bigger white plasma or more like a flame (yellow/orange) ?
"I put jet nozzle against the inlet of the chamber and let her rip."You blew compressed air toward plug and into an "open" chamber?
"Nitro vs. Compressed Air Burn pattern"I'm used to looking at black (carbon) or toasty brown (lean fuel) plugs.
There's obviously no fuel involved.... so we have to be looking at the effects of combusted/exploded elements....hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon etc. in particular with whatever water vapor was present in the compressed air.... THAT'S amazing!
No Earth cage/electrode?..... the pierce ball just found ground to the edges?
Did you use your "Kiker" coil plug wire to enhance power to the plug?

The spark was bright white with the occasional flare up or flash out. Didn't happen with nitrogen alone.
"I put jet nozzle against the inlet of the chamber and let her rip."You blew compressed air toward plug and into an "open" chamber?
Yes towards the plug but the lid was still on so pressure could build to a point then forced backwards past the jet nozzle.

Yep, no noticable burn pattern with nitro only.

The earh cage was on at the time

Pulstar plug with no earth straps
Hi guys,
Just did a new video on a pulstar plug with earth straps removed. If you're interested it's here

As always...........have fun!

Kiker Replications
Hi Ozi..
Thanks and Yes... we're following your efforts!
The Pulstar plug is a resistor plug..yes?
You mentioned on the kiker thread, you were having difficulty with leakage from the insulation on your replication plug wires?
Can you elaborate? What kind of insulation did you use?
Have you overcome this problem?
Thanks for your updates.
