Lightning
Tubes

White
is only color option for Lightning tubes
Presently
the Lightning Tubes are not avavailable
By
combining the shapes of blown glass with different gases and
electronic circuits, an endless variety of tube effects are
possible. Lightning tubes can be made to produce intense, fast
moving, white lightning, or a slow, undulating display that
wraps and unwraps around the inside of the tube.
Lightning
tubes, although straw-like in cross-section, can be formed to
almost any shape you'd like - simple or complex, abstract or
representational. Even though it's the same glass tubing used
in neon signs, the gas inside is specially formulated to ionize
(glow) in thin streams of light, much like dancing spaghetti.
The motion of the light streams can be manufatured to be slow
or fast.

Plamsa
tubes are similar to plasma globes except the glass is in
the shape of a tube, which can be formed into almost any
shape, simple or creative. The ionized gas undulates like
the Northern Lights, and can be manufactured to change rapidly
in an energetic movement, or slowly in a soothing ribbon
of light.

Hows does a Plasma Globe work?
A plasma device, whether it is a tube or a globe, is a sealed
glass piece that has what we call a "plasma" gas mixture
inside. The term "plasma" is technically any ionized
gas in a discharge tube (fluorescent lights, neon tubes, etc.)
In this case it refers to a specific lighting effect. The gas
mixture is primarily made up of inert gases such as neon, krypton,
xenon, argon, helium, etc. A "dopant gas" mix is mixed
in in very small amount to form the thin filaments of light.
The dopants gas also helps determine the color of the discharge.
These dopants are carefully formulated, without them the globe
(or tube) would just glow uniformly and have no filaments. The
gas lights up with a high-voltage, high-frequency power supply
that essentially broadcasts a field of energy causing the gases
to light up, much like the Northern Lights. Nicholai Tesla worked
with these devices and published an article describing how to
make them as early as 1910. Since a high-voltage field exists
around a plasma device, no conductive materials should be used
to build the base. The power supply also needs to be located
close to the globe. The wiring also needs to be kept away from
any other conductive surface. No insulation is sufficient to
insulate the wiring from a conductive surface.
Many people ask how long a plasma device will last. They do
not just stop working. Over the years the fingers of light will
get wider and less bright. This happens gradually. At any time
the device can be repumped, depending on how the viewer feels
about how the fingers look and how long it has been run (and
also how much power is used to run it).
