raghav raju Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 i have a plasma ball. but accidently the glass is broken so can i repair it?
insane_alien Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 not really. you'd need to pump out the air and slightly backfill with a noble gas. at the very least you'd require a vacuum chamber. easier to buy a new one.
raghav raju Posted February 8, 2012 Author Posted February 8, 2012 can i buy a new one and use it on the old one
Phi for All Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 can i buy a new one and use it on the old one No. insane_alien meant buy a whole new plasma ball. I don't think they sell just the vacuum chambers by themselves.

I don't know enough about plasma filaments to tell you. It depends on how... enthusiastically the glass got broken, I suppose. Could you assemble, fill and reattach the filaments to a new vacuum chamber for a lot less than $50?
