a sweet laser light show is a use... just not a practical one....

But hey, Tesla was busy being a badass, and inventing badass things! He didn't have time for considering little details like practicality!:awesome:

I think one of the considered applications was wireless electricity.
Its possible to put a giant tesla coil on every street corner and you can light all the lightbulbs on the block.


Now via wikipedia:

Tesla coil circuits were used commercially in sparkgap radio transmitters for wireless telegraphy until the 1920s[1], and in electrotherapy and quack medical devices such as violet ray. Today their main use is entertainment and educational displays. Tesla coils are built by many high-voltage enthusiasts, research institutions, science museums and independent experimenters. Modified Tesla coils are widely used as igniters for high power gas discharge lamps, common examples being the mercury vapor and sodium types used for street lighting. Although electronic igniters are available, Tesla's original spark gap design is much cheaper and has proven extremely reliable.

oh yeah! wasn't he going to try and make free worldwide wireless power  using the ionosphere like an electrical cable?  I think that's why J.P. Morgan shut him down and shut him up....
