The idea is simple.
You need:
A induction coil, a cardboard tube (dia.10cms, length 30 cms approx)
some wires, aluminium foil, CIGARETTE.
Procedure:
Take the tube. warp it with aluminium foil(having a distance of 1cms, of each roundup, from end of the tube to other). let a straight Al foil into the tube. Beware they shouldnt touch the inner wall(the place were u will insert).
Connect 9vol batt. to inuction coil. The other 2 to the Al foils(outlet of inductioncoil). Make a hole at the bottom of tube(twice the dia. of Cigarrete).
Switch on the induction coil. keep a burning Ciggarette pretty closeto the hole( no problem if inside). Sciences plays(no time explain"why?").
You will not get any smoke of the tube.

It could maybe if you connect it to high voltage instead of a battery. I did something similar with a tin can connected to a Van De Graff generator, and it worked as a dust attractor.

Just buy an Ionic Breeze thing from Sharper Image; they work.

LOL
It's a spam-fest! (not really, I'm prone to exxagerate)
