I wonder what would happen if the first set of buckets we're copper coils instead? maybe even dual coils insulated from each other? maybe it could use tesla's coil theory to amplify the effect, and pick up
ambient energy? just some crazy thoughts I've had? keep up the good work!
what happens if you use a smaller nozzle in you pressurized the water flow? also can you use to be on the bottom bucket up to the top that will continually flow, just like on divinci device?
PVC is not a great "electrostatic dielectric." Support bottom buckets (and whatever...) with blocks of paraffin and you'd get a much higher difference in potential.
=Personal experience speaking, here. I did this as a science project 48 years ago w/ a NE-2 neon bulb in place of the spark gap. Didn't work till I insulated everything with paraffin. My drip collars were only 2" long, but they worked just fine. Used well water because that WAS our TAP WATER at the time.
i challange you to build it in a way so that it can be used to desalinate water

does humidity have a huge factor in this?

@DyckOnAByck Could be. You know how static electricity builds up much more in the winter when the air is dry.

OH MY GOD!!!
You solved my problem. My Kelvin generator did not works too.
Look at video starting from 1:30 !!! Notice how droplets with one charge fly into 'wrong' bucket (adjacent, or opposite bucket), neutralizing charges.
I was lazy and expecting that bucket's rim itself will serve as a spark gap. Now I know that both buckets MUST be well separated each from other.
Few minutes ago I checked it again, and I am amazed how far such fine droplets can fly. And it working now! Thanks again.

Thousands of volt output,more than input, this defies input=output theory.

what happend if you use more long alluminum cans and put the water source higher? or use 4-6-8 cans?
