Graphite is Awesome!

Graphite is one of the many interesting forms of carbon. And carbon I
love! It morphs into coal, diamond, graphite, graphene, fullerenes,
nanotubes, buckyballs and more, all with their own set of fantastic
properties. Except for CO2, that causes global warming. But graphite is
awesome!
only thing better than Graphite is Graphene which won some professors the Noble prize in 2010, its going to help save the planet.

Well, the capacitors, after they are charged, can deliver a lot of power

Can I use Google opinion rewards to pay? I have like $20 dollars that I haven't used and another $10 on a different account. Google opinion rewards is a random survey and Google pays you money you can use in the app store and in app purchases. Don't get to excited it's only ten cents or up to a dollar at a time and they're random can't do as many as you want. But if you figure it out I'll give as much as I have because I'm awesome.

James, I changed the rules slightly so all my patrons have a chance to win. I have the big giveaways for my >=$10 pledges and smaller ones for =$10.

You have to pledge $10 or more.

Where does all this energy come from? Have you put your daughter on a hamster wheel to produce your power for your shenanigans? Child labor is wrong!
Love,

I saw on your recent video that viewers could win one of those thermal cameras? How can i get in on that contest? I would love to play around with one of those.

I've seen people use super caps and carbon rods with heavy SCR's to do home spot welds on big lithium cell battery banks. Pulse the current through the carbon rod at the contact point where you want to weld something, through that something, and the combined heat will fuse it in a flash, less than second. Not as flammable as Mehdi, though :)

I already did that with a powerful 48 volt supply and a big inductor! That made massive arcs! Awesome!

I did the pencil graphite one in computer class in high school. Teacher was unimpressed.

Awesome. I work at a battery store and have been saving old 6volt carbon zinc batteries for their rods.

If only we would actually make it in bulk and use it to its full potential instead of only marvel at its properties and potential usecases.
