          Wait is this actually dangerous? I’ve never heard of this and it seems cool to try but would it actually explode or something?

            It’s completely safe, other than you’ll be waving a thin glass tube around and immediately want to pretend it’s a light saber when it lights up. Remember, they all contain mercury, if when it does break, don’t inhale.

      You can power your house wirelessly with a large antenna near power lines. But that would actually use power from the lines and co soldered theft.
