I thought you guys might find this interesting. It's just a fun little experiment or demonstration that you can do with household items. It just shows how you can harness the energy left over on your television screen and use it to do work. Thanks for watching and commenting, I appreciate it.

  • does it only work with tv???????

  • @batrisyia91 This particular set-up will only work with a tube type television, but you could power the device with another power source. You would just eliminate the foil and hook the wires to the battery that you're using.

  • ok so i love this but iam 12 do u think i can do it my self?????

  • @darkwolv345 Like I said in the video, I recommend you show the video to one of your parents before you try to do this. If you follow exactly what I do in the video, then it will work.

  • if that happens with a small tv, what if i do it to my 40 inch? It makes lots of crackle noises.

  • @SuperDaniel360 It might keep going for a bit longer.
