Handheld Static Electricity Generator

So these are the truly important concepts to understand.

Handheld static electricity generator.

Whether it s a coal plant running water or wind power comes from some other form of energy. Electric generator all share the same basic principles. An electrostatic generator or electrostatic machine is an electromechanical generator that produces static electricity or electricity at high voltage and low continuous current the knowledge of static electricity dates back to the earliest civilizations but for millennia it remained merely an interesting and mystifying phenomenon without a theory to explain its behavior and often confused. The electrical buildup can then be discharged with a touch to shock anything in reach.

This high voltage generator can electrify a persons entire body with a static charge more powerful than rubbing even the softest footie pajamas on a carpet could ever muster. The 15 page illustrated guide explains the science of static electricity. Any time you use electricity you are using energy that came from somewhere else. In electricity generation a generator is a device that converts motive power mechanical energy into electrical power for use in an external circuit sources of mechanical energy include steam turbines gas turbines water turbines internal combustion engines wind turbines and even hand cranks the first electromagnetic generator the faraday disk was invented in 1831 by british scientist.

I have a flashlight. In the following video i demonstrate how to create a device capable of charging the body of anyone who wears it with static electricity allowing a powerful shock to be discharged into anything that is touched. 4 hand crank generator. Watch the static charge suspend the included mylar strips and then collapse them with a touch of your finger only to watch the strips pop back up.
