Shouldn't take that long considering recycled content, this video starts in another video of yours "Capacitors Explained - The basics how capacitors work working principle" starting at the 27 second mark. Kinda disappointed I really liked this channel but tired of seeing the same videos as they get shorter and less detailed because they are pulled from previous videos and being cut down

We could have used KZfaq back early in my military days learning electronics. You teach at a level a grunt can understand. And I ain't gonna lie you're reviving my interest in electronics that I lost a few decades ago. Good job. I haven't check every video but do you cover Ohms law and filters like a band pass?

Very well made videos from a learning perspective! If I in sound engineering want to try and get rid of noise while building a electric circuit, could I first add a component (that wich turns off the flow when it increases(forgot the name, sorry)) and then add a capacitor? Or would there be problems with cut off in sound signal? Loss of musical information?
