Plasma Arc Lighter Voltage at Roderick Roger blog

Plasma Arc Lighter Voltage. An arc needs about 1 kv to 3 kv per mm air gap. The current flowing between the electrodes ionizes the air it passes through creates plasma. Have you tried touching the electrodes of a plasma lighter? So from the distance of the arc lighter contacts you can guess it's voltage. The working principle of an electric arc lighter is simple. With plasma lighters, the plasma arc forms across poles that are placed just a few millimeters apart. I understand that you need a very high voltage, created by a transformer within the device, to create sufficient potential difference for the air between the elecrodes to break. A high voltage develops between two (or more) closely spaced electrodes and makes an electric arc between them. After plugging the arc lighter into a source of mains voltage (in my case an isolated variac), you can push the button, and you will see a purple. This is what is known as plasma, and is the. Simply put, the lighter pushes a high voltage current between two ceramic nodes that create a really hot arc of electricity. There is no flame, so whatever you want to light must come extremely close to the lighter. It hurts like hell, and rapidly gives you small burns that take a few days to heal.
