Do Try This at Home - "Blowing Electrons Into Light" - Season 4 Episode 20

Conductors contain free electrons, but how can we move them without a battery? With a generator, of course. A bright idea is blowing in the wind, and electrons are on the move with a great project you can really expand upon. It will literally leave you light headed! Make your own wind generator out of just a few simple items in this episode of "Do Try This at Home". Stay until the very end for outtakes and the secret flash-pic.

Voltage and Current(amps) aren't the same thing

[Mindpaint]

@737Pilot122

That's correct.

@TheTechStud

There is MUCH unique and original material, however, that's not the point. Read the site tag line, "We do the thinking. You just sit there amused." This is the whole point behind MindlessMirth. Dead? With views numbering at nearly 1000 per day, I tend to disagree.

Thanks for the concern though,

I'm guessing now when your making videos they want to help and be your camera-cat

[Gerbilinator]

Really Cool!

[Victron357]

@lenoat702 they've both are not making as many videos as they used to :(

[TheSquidPartol]

each time i watch mr.g his hair long or realy short

[diabolospin]

when is thre a new do try this at home

[silydog1]

15 people could not see the fan running

[737Pilot122]

@Mindpaint I didn't mean to sound like an ass by the way, you just worded it wierd in the video

[737Pilot122]

@mcintoshamps Just shut up, I build circuit boards every weekend, oh and you don't know what you're talking about, resistance increases voltage and decreases current

[hrudayaangel]

if the flow breaks it is called voltage...

if flow of electrons continues with out any break point it is current

ex: in a open circuit the flow of e- breaks at open path and stores in form of voltage

if it is closed path no break and the flow path is called current
