"Great for a stun gun, let's make an ear bud!" What could possibly go wrong! Great video.

This fella is like the best teacher you never had. I'm addicted to his channels and working my way back through all the past videos. He seems like a spot on lad too 👍👍👍

Wow! A drawing of the thing behaves like, and in effect IS the thing itself? Asymmetrical capacitors? NASA? The Biefeld-Brown effect? Robert is opening up some rabbit holes here, and making them accessible to people who wouldn't otherwise be interested in them, all the while hiding behind his good nature and cheery demeanor.

This channel is a Master Class in nerdy fun! 🤓

“Using them is stunningly easy” - I can see what you did there 😂 Thank you for another brilliant video

Awesomeness to beat all awesomeness

A friend of mine and I are going to try to turn a high-strength electric bug-zapper (the kind that look like a tennis racket) into an electrostatic speaker using Mylar and carbon powder. Dunno if it's going to work, but we think it will!

I love how amazingly simply you break things down

Who knew the power on symbol actually had a purpose?! NICE!

You had me at thrust

😂 I'm imagining someone wearing those as the final product. Hahaha ... I'm very tired 😴 Super cool concept! Thanks for sharing Rob!! ✌️

I almost expect a button on his mug to enable a speaker that says “Caffeinate! Caffeinate! “ in the Dalek voice.

Just noticed the Darlek mug. Cheers from across the pond!

Those devices are also great for making hand held electrostatic flocking machines for model making and many other things.

“Touch them in the spine & they’re gonna fall down & wee themselves!” 😂 I almost did just that without any electrocution after tht comment!

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. And yet it's so simple

9:30 Painful is an understatement. While I haven't been hit with a stun gun, I have been hit by automotive ignition systems. They'll make a man hurt himself and force him to change his pants for unintended wetness.

4:52 It can't be just me that imagined grabbing a shovel and and start swinging. Fascinating stuff though

"Stunningly easy to use" 😆

“Those are the ones you stick into people” Loved that line 😅

could turn out to be a shocking pair of headphones

An ear bud that will make you fall down and wee yourself if you touch the 2 wires while listening! LOL

Excellent video Rob! 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

You know you have to make a stun gun now. Wait, is that even legal to do without a manufacturing permit in UK?

Quad electro static speakers 1957 always wanted to listen to them or even own some & I have been fascinated with the principle since I first had a advert in the late 1970s.

its not every day that you can draw a picture of something, and the something you draw IS the thing. that's pretty awesome.

in future they will tattoo that shape on your eardrum with a tiny battery and wifi to connect to the network

Hehe, they are putting a stun gun up to their ear.

Have you seen the ionic thrusters that plasma channel and Integza did, using the bigger high voltage Module?

Very neat! I don’t have a 3D printer that can print multiple filaments, I wonder how a 3D printed version would work?!

The advertisement before the video was some free energy device

Very cool, BUT you are only working with one half of the audio signal, due to the high voltage osc. You probably thought of silver paint?

interesting, will you make a video about Dan Ludois or marc gendron electrostatic motor with this Kv generator?

It would be interesting to see a bigger one with a 3d printed case.

wow those caps on that motherboard in opening shot are cooked!

as a thruster, esp by the patent illustration, it strikes me as working much like an ion thruster or corona thruster or plasma thruster, whatever they're called properly. where do they diverge in how they work?

That would be on the list of banned weapons possession of which is a crime.

Rex Research has some of T. T.Browns scientific notebooks for free downloads. Brown was who discovered that Capacitors accelerated toward the positive plate.

I wonder if it would sound better with thinner paper, or if you stretched the paper as taut as possible without tearing it? Perhaps saturating the paper with a light oil? Just kicking ideas around.

Electrostatic Head phones are a must for discerning audiophiles. Just look at the shocking price of some of them and then the price of the amplifier to drive them.

I got an ionising ac fan from my uncle wich I took apart. The hv module looks the same as what you are showing. But the electrodes are 10cm apart while running. How does the circuit hold stable then? You can only see a little corona when lights turned off. It is sitting in isolated material so I can’t see this circuit. Love the stuff. You are like a mentor to me 😄👍🏼.

bit of clear tube to not bend down work?

I wonder about teh circuit in 7:23. Should the base of the transistor be grounded?

Guessing you could reverse it and make a pressure switch?

Can you reverse such circuits to turn that speaker into a mic? What do you call a reverse capacitor? I'm trying to make sense of it.

Is that an actual lutec sitting on the table??

Very cool

My first thought is Electro boom shocking his ear..falling down and weeing himself. I wonder what the effect would be by changing the shape of the pencil's graphite design to a fractal pattern.

TBH, I was never that impressed with the 20KV high voltage "stun guns" in terms of deterrence. I stuck one into the meat of my arm and the actual sensation was roughly akin to continuously feeling a small needle driven about half an inch into the flesh. If you weren't expecting it, or were apprehensive because you had seen the effects of real tasers, the sensation would startle and bother you. However, if you weren't either of those things, you could easily tolerate the "needling" feeling at least to the point where you started to suffer actually noticeable burns. I wish I had received a tattoo so that I could better compare the sensations, but from what I have been told there are many areas on the human body where tattooing would cause much more pain. Either way, the feeling isn't enough to compel any sort of behavior from an opponent, even to the degree of dropping something held in the fingers.

Mate, I have a shameless proposition for you. Could you give your input on : Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC), Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells, And Carbonate-SuperStructured Fuel Cells. These fuel cells work similarly to hydrogen fuel cells, but can use simpler hydrocarbons like petrol/gasoline or diesel or methane and possibly many other hydrocarbons. With higher efficiency than an engine. And the obvious advantage of less mechanical complexity than any engine. But are these real or just gimmicks and impractical?

The writers of Back To The Future should have had one of these in their DeLorean.

- It doesn't make a whole lot of sound" - not suprising, but ... so funny - "earbud" - mini phonograph sized. (Rob's DIY AP channel. - for aspiring London thugs, no need to $t&b when you can $TUn the vict!m...) Jacob's ladder speaker - hmm interesting.

For making graphene out of trash, how much power do you think that would require per day, considering the average size of a landfill? Even if you had power with solar and wind, you would need a LOT of extra power (and capacitors) to flash that much every minute. Per metric ton per hour. How many capacitors and power storage (say you used Molten Salt) do you think that would be and what other systems could you use to increase the efficiency, considering the source? Would Hydrogen help out, if for instance you were making it as well (solar/wind/wave), similar to chemical plants using hydrogen as boilers and reclaim any waste heat/energy from cogeneration

“.. touch somebody on the base of the spine with it, and they’re going to pee themselves!” Where the hell is Luke when you nee him? 😈 5:20 Opportunity missed! Why isn’t Luke at college? 😈

Haha. Try this Luke. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. This must be similar to electric fence for animals.

So you make a capacitor like the electrostatic lifter?

I remember seeing a Canadian professor show amazing effects from an asymmetric transformer Any thoughts ?

Hmmm, plasma physics. 🧐

Not sure I want 10Kv in my ear in the wet and rainy UK!

Is this Electro-Boom approved?

Are they Bluetooth enabled ?🤔

NASA Stole that capacitor design, one of the guy's who is named in the patent did a lengthy interview with the inventor and then less than 2 years later NASA patented it. The effect also works in a vacuum and the thrust is way beyond what ion momentum alone produces, the mechanism still isn't fully understood.

Oops the stun gun bit may get you into trouble. A bit like others showing how to 3D print a gun. Is there a risk of the paper catching fire with such high voltage?

Hi hope you did not give the bad people silly ideas. 👍🐝🌞
