I don't blame you. I say it every morning before breakfast. You're absolutely right. It is not a Van Graaff Generator.

Atom smashing tends to be slightly more light emitting.

I was going to suggest some kind of prototype gas vapour lamp (mercury, krypton, argon etc).
But has way too many flim-flams on the zim-zam to be a lighting solution.

It's not a crookes tube?

One of those Metals is involved, as is gas /vapour. Closer scrutiny of the film-flams and their relationship to the zim-zam would be helpful.

Plasma globe?
