Do not attempt any of the
experiments shown on these web pages.
A good working knowledge and training in dealing with High
voltages is required. Many precautions are taken here and are not
covered by this web site. Many more should be taken.

Origin
This site is based on part of a collection of electronic and electrical
equipment. A small insight to the fascinating world of electronics over the
years. Many items may be obsolete but they still show ingenuity and engineering
at its best.
The site also contains some information on experiments
and projects. Not all the information required to copy the experiments is
available on the site. This
is intentional as there are hazards associated with many of the setups. In
particular high voltages and electromagnetic radiation. Precautions and
safe practices need to be employed when using high voltages. Many
insulating materials become conductors at very high voltages including
air. High voltage capacitors must always be regarded as potentially
lethal.
The site name
The name Tuopeek comes from Keep Out
backwards. Tuopeek like 'Keep Out' suggest danger but associates the
inquisitive nature of peek. Perhaps used here in its inverse form
to mean "come in" !
