Items required: = One 10- to 15-foot, 12-gauge extension cord with or without the third green grounding wire or three-pin plug and socket. Ungrounded two-wire cords may be used. - Two alligator clips, medium sized so that the jaws will clamp around the carbon rods (e.g., Radio Shack #270- 0344 at US$2.59 a pair). = One electrical heating appliance such as an electric space heater, steam iron, skillet, deep-fryer, waffle iron, etc. This will become the series-connected ballast load that will limit the current draw from the short circuit load that will occur when the arc is started or struck and will regulate current flow when illuminating. - Two bricks with ventilation holes. = Two carbon rods, as can be found at any welding supply store. A pair of D-sized batteries can be cut lengthwise and the carbon removed, but this is messy and hardly worth the effort. Tools required: Insulated handle screwdriver - Wire stripper + Haemostat (vice grip) Single-edge razor blade Insulating carpet, newspapers, auto floor mats, etc. - Table surface (for which heat discolouration and hot spatter damage is not an issue) - Tennis shoes - Rubber gloves = Soldering gun/iron with radio solder (optional) Large 'C’ clamp or furniture clamp is not a necessity. Ungrounded appliances may be used for the ballast load. Plug the appliance into the socket of the modified extension cord and operate its controls to maximum normal operation. Because of the extreme danger of potentially fatal electric shocks as well as fire hazards, the physical location chosen for the treatment should be carefully considered. The carbon rods will spatter slightly during operation, and the small, hot, spark particles can easily start a fire or drop onto the surface below, Herbal intestinal cleanses of numerous varieties based upon known purgatives are quite effective in eliminating most parasites, but the mighty tapeworm often escapes total destruction from almost any form of herbal or chemical assault upon it. However, the tapeworm cannot survive mechanical fracture when exposed to the high energy levels of full-spectrum vibratory light. The energy impinged at close proximity to the loci of the electric carbon arc is so great that the animal simply breaks apart throughout the entire length of its body within 30 seconds of such intense light exposure. THE CARBON ARC LAMP The energy band of the carbon arc electric lamp ranges from the heat-producing invisible infrared end of the light spectrum through the invisible ultraviolet, to wavelengths as short as 180 nanometres, which remain below the spectral band of the dangerous energy emitted by X-rays. Thus the radiation exposures from the electric carbon arc lamp are not ionising as are X-rays and thus constitute no danger to the user, other than perhaps erythmas (skin burns) produced by overexposure to the intense energy-laden light or conjunctivitis if one gazes into its alluring flame. A simple and inexpensive electric carbon arc treatment lamp can be constructed for under US$20. When used with proper precautions, it is safe and extremely effective. Carbon rods can be obtained by sawing in half D-sized battery cells; or, better still, longer copper-clad rods can be purchased from any welding supply store. Carbon-arc-cutting carbons are popular with hobby welders who cannot afford the more expensive plasma cutters or hydraulic shears. All that is required to create an arc illumination set-up is a pair of bricks with ventilation holes, a 12-gauge, 10- to 15-foot, heavy-duty extension cord, large alligator clips, and a resistive load such as an electric space heater, steam iron, hot plate, deep-fryer or electric skillet and, of course, a pair of carbon rods. A ground fault interrupter (GFI) is highly recommended, though, as the exposed carbons represent a shock hazard if accidentally touched. Assembly Take a single-sided razor blade and pinch it off on a corner of the razor blade with a haemostat (or vice grip) so that the cutting edge extends below the jaws at a depth slightly less than the thickness of the insulation jacket. At a point about one foot from the socket end of the cord, slit the jacket for a length of about three feet and separate the wires from the jacket by cutting off the slit insulation material. At the mid-point of the white wire (or blue if European colour-coding is used), cut and strip the ends by half an inch to one inch and attach (preferably solder) the wires to each alligator clip. The appliance which is to be used as the ballast load may or may not contain the third grounding pin. Such a device is desirable, as it offers a little more safety to an otherwise dangerous configuration, but "We tracked your petrol consumption problem.
