Made a Van De Graaff Generator!

Now just have to test it, record it and post it! Too k a while to make it and I'm still striving to make the arcs bigger! Some people buy large fancy cars, I like my arcs big...
Cool. I watched your everyday

Hello Mr Mehdi, I am a big fan of yours. I had a quick question for you, is it worth going for graduate school as an electrical engineer or just working. I am in my final year for bachelors and debating between work and grad school. What did you do when you were in school?

I thought that's natural, I wasn't aiming to be a model! [edit] oh sorry, you were talking about the Van De Graaff

Not to get personal or anything but one of your balls is bigger than the other.

Where’s the video of it

It's not producing 1000w, it is capable of producing 1000w. It can only produce as much as the load demands, up to its maximum output.

Solar Grid-Tie Inverters Shutdown when the grid is down, by using AC-coupling , we provide a pure sine-wave to the Grid-Tie Inverter to make it understand is grid is up using a normal Backup-Home UPS and power the critical loads using the Grid-Tie inverter, if the GT inverter is producing 1000w and the critical Loads are using 300W, where will the excess 700W go?

You are awesome <3

Did you find plans online or make them yourself? where did you source the metal spheres?

Ahh... A new Mehdi-toaster...

Would love to see a video - Difference between static electricity and current electricity
2018-07-13 17:48:41 +0000 UTC
This is awesome!

hmmmmm.... what is the material of the belt?

lol, this popped in my head as soon as I read the post. xD

If you have to pick a way to compensate for something, having giant balls that should lightning is not a bad way to go.

Are you electrostaticly pre-charging the band at the base? this can drive the voltage up incredibly.

his GREAT UNIBROW will expand to the very edges of the Universe. or... should i call it... UNIBROWERSE?

I see one of them is automatic lol nice

I like big arcs and I cannot lie, you other resistors can't deny... when a guy walks in with a uni on his face and a round thing in your space, you get *BOOM*

Ooh-make a lineartron with it! You already have the vacuum pump!

What happens when you bring a Van de Graff generator near a Tesla coil?
2018-07-13 01:46:03 +0000 UTC
Not 100% sure, but i dont think we will be seeing a demonstration of his hair emerging out like in the classical VDG demonstration

Was anybody else looking for the play button? Sound like a good video

Yep. When someone tells you, "my car is fast as lightning," you can respond with, "let me show you lightning ..."

Who Needs Cars, when you can Make Lightning?

We have one in my school ;)

Charge capacitors now?
