It's a pity we don't see so much of Collin Cunnigham on KZfaq any more. He's a great video presenter... one of the best.

For a video uploaded in 2009 this is before its time quality wise.

I am an ECET major, and this video series is the best one I have found for these topics. It makes them very simple and easy to understand. Now I can easily teach these concepts to others and even refresh my own respect for them easily. Thanks.

great teacher. I don't know how he is so humble.

i love this demonstration! thanks for opening up the capacitor....always helps to know what these things are made of. that demo of a crude capacitor (plastic bottle and aluminum foil) is an excellent way to demonstrate the capacitor's properties.

Collin, you're the LORD of electronics!

the intro had me laughing 😂. amazing video yet again from collin and the make crew

Very nice group of videos. I've learnt a few things this evening. I liked the bit of history thrown in to show the roots of progress. Thanks

Excelente video. I know the topic. But, the real teaching is the way you do it. I like the hiatory behind the capacitor too. Thank you.

good video. Thanks for putting it in HD to, it looks so much better.

I love that type of videos: simple, fun and instructive

You are the one of the best practical teacher...

Thank you for these videos. Learning so much!

Such a great video to show basic concepts of a capacitor! I'm gonna show it in my lab

Thanks. I have been doing some electronics stuff as a hobby but I have been confused. After watching a bunch if these videos I am back on track with no more troubles.

I have read and seen many video and they weren't able to translate or explain, things like you do; please don't stop making videos.

this show is awesome. I know nothing about electronics but I start to learn a lot from these videos. GG

this guy is the best one to teach electronics his funny way of teaching makes people understand

I love this guy, he explain very well and even beginners shall easily understand the explanation. Nice One Again!

man these videos are so cool. I hope you are still doing youtube stuff in 2020

Collin is something precious and we must protect him. ;)

A very interesting and informative video - got to watch all the others now! Thanks for posting.

I must admit .. you are the best ,, you explain things the way it should .. thanks for taking your time to do it keep doing it .. God Bless

Great Work, please keep doing it. You instruct millions with your know-aged! Thanks and best regards

These are wicked useful for tons of projects.

Great video -looking forward to watching more!

Great video. Thank you for posting this video up.

This my friends is real education.

The last example gave me a good idea of its meaning. Thanks!

Thanks for the awesome videos! Keep up with the good work!

Thanks! It all makes total sense now!

Awesome background music and awesome tutorial

Great video! Thank you.

thanks for all the lessons here! really helpfull!!

This is an awesome video and your presentation was totally clear and understandable. Thanks for posting it. Cheers.

Thank you very much man, you are one of the best teachers i will have. :)

I really enjoy your work. Thank you.

Thanks so much for the tutorial, I'm going to make one now!

Great vid!

This guy's presentation is great....

That was Awesome, man!

Informative and entertaining! Well done!

Excellent video and explanation

I am with every body saying make more videos like this. That was very informative.

thanks I am from India and have been looking for the functionality of various electronic components and in India we have bee taught in a fashion where there is literally no scope of learning although we have been thought conceptually about various things but no illustration , keep up the good work

Very good stuff, thanks

I so much like these series, even though I'm perfectly aware of the components discuissed ^^

Very informative video, thank you!

amazing experiment!!

GREAT WORK

youre the best teacher ever. i wish u could have been my high school teacher

finally some quality vids on youtube.. Thanks

Great Vid!

That little wavy green thing is fascinating.

I love this KZfaq channel good stuff man

I just made one at my EMS station, we we're bored, and as everyone else was sittin around thinkin of something to do, and i got some alum. foil, a plastic Folgers can (always around lmao), some spare wire from the light bar switch we just did on our fly car, PVC pipe, and a polyester windbreaker, and it worked! Everyone here was gettin pretty good kicks out of it, even though it didn't work that well, i kinda made it in a hurry, we'll see if we can make it better, thanks for killing boredom! XD

Cool video!

i cant help stairing at his head for all his videos

good informative video. But I still have a question. When you make the laden (sp) jar, where is the actual storing of voltage energy, cause it seems from what you showed is that you created static electricity and let it flow into the center conductor, then you touched the center conductor to the outside conductor (after stopping the supply of electrical energy to the inner conductor), and there was a discharge as shown by the spark. So, if this showed that the inner metal wrapper held a charge for a while, then does that mean that even a wire should be itself hold a charge for a while, for example, if I connect one end of a wire to a battery and then take the battery away, will the wire hold a charge for a split second? If so, then is it the cylindrical design of the laden jar that causes the charge to be sustained for a longer time?

Professor Colin :) Every video top class Thanks for sharing

Based on these informations i will be able to build my own capcitors. Thank you!

I like the pace of this video.

Nice video!

Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Looking forward to studying this next year!

This guy's a great teacher

Thank you for your videos, Best regards

danger!!! genius at work!!!

This video is pretty cool. Five stars all the way.

you been a great help.

Keep it coming with more videos, Electroman!

Wow, great video....really interesting.

Thank you! That's really helpful. Now I undestand something new :)

While you're not a natural talker, you've still earned my sub for such detailed description of how things work. I've been trying to find answers for these questions left and right and all I've gotten are answers how it works but never how it's made.

Thnks for the video.Best ever

is it just me or the audio is a bit badly mixed ? the music is sometimes too loud . my 2 cents ;) very very good video nonetheless

the music is awesome in this!

Thanks for explaning the capacitor...

Collin you're my hero! :D

Beautiful.

School's don't teach like this!! :/

good videos, thanks!!

100% wicked learning!

That was interesting, learned a bit I didn't know before.

really good, thanks

great video

Fabulous haircut!

Excelente video

i like the way you teach man nice work. I would like my electronics teacher teach me that way.

a great demonstration of intelligence, thanks man

well made video !

.Thank you very much. Dear Sir : May you please show us how a simple electronic change over works, Best Regards

amazing!

nice vid!

man, you're good explaining

Thank you interesting teaching ! :)

very very nice!

Wow i enjoyed that thanks

wow never knew that! thanks nice info!

Very informative thanks for this cool video :)
