An antique Energex high frequency device used in quack medicine, turned into a leak checker with style.

A gift from Chris Clarke, Director of Operations at the Pittsburgh Glass Center

Here’s an example of using a more modern device, oudin coil. Same thing used in more expensive devices specific to leak checking that could cost you from $99-$200. 

My friend Harold Lasswell was able to make a leak checker for under $40.
