Hey All...
I bought one of those 14" wide "discs" ( basically 2 plates of glass 
with "beads" in it with a hi volt discharge in the center) to produce 
a "flat" tesla coil streamer effect.
I got it from WalMart for 20$   kinda kewl   center region is 
green/yellow ( Im color blind so I really cant tell what color it is )
with a red ( I was told its red) mid section and the typical blue 
that argon produces ( that color I can see)  )  on the outer rim ( 
obviously tinted glass or something of that nature)...   think of a 
target for archery but wrong colors in sequence......
my question is    what kind of gas is used and what is the typical 
voltage involved in this setup?  I am going to assume argon is the 
main constituant of the gas mix...
just interested in its make-up...
