Sidestep 3874B2 : Just a little thing i noticed before, my wood gets charged.


So i decided to have a little fun : )

A wooden stator
I like it


This proves that with an appropriate voltage
Any substance can be used to make a motor
Why?
Because even an insulator becomes conductive
when the voltage potential reaches a certain magnitude.


This opens the door for motors made from plastic or any
other material that has a low cost.
Semiconductors can also be used in this manner
By utilizing their 'breakdown' voltage.


Nice demonstration

Electrostatic experiments can be surprising. That is why in the 18th century it took them so long to come up with the concept of "conductors" (metals). Electrostatic charges can creep along non-conductors like glass or wood surfaces and can go through the air, which was and still is confusing.

The first electricity which could be reproduced consistently at will was static electricity from an electrophorus (about 1760). The AC generators came much later in the 19th century.

There is this theory that they had batteries (lemon juice, copper and iron electrodes) before Christ in Egypt and Mesopotamia (Bagdad, Iraq) for electrolysis (plating led figurines with gold probably for fraudulent reasons or at least for bragging), but one could doubt that.

So, Cherryman, you are re-living the history of electrostatic research. And you seem to have as much fun as the people in the 18th century. The legend is that Alessandro Volta https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alessandro_Volta (and many other noblemen scientists) did his experiments for the amusement of the ladies at court.

Nowadays electrostatic effects are unwanted side effects and only a few do research in this area. And the ladies nowadays need more excitement than a curious scientific experiment.

It all fits in nicely with Walter Russels theory's

Tnx Conrad,


Yes i dont now much about electricity in detail, but i've done extensive research the last 10 years, in history, energy history, ancient religions and pfff.. too much!


I happen to remember the Volta rumors and if i'm not mistaken he was in a discovery race with another Italian..  Galva?  can't remember    They would make dead  frogs move among others.. 
Had to be carefull those days not to get burnt for devil worshipping ; )


But i like my little hands on journey now.. and my side steps  : )
