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

You are wrong. It isn't one of them at all. It's one of those.

No, but it could be part of the Battery Charger.

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.
