Those voices are just ghosts whispering into your ear. Luckily we have a solution for that! Call Ghostbusters NW and ask about our "disembodied voices" service package!

This video is great. Maybe the distortion is a bit much, but otherwise pretty enjoyable. I also LOVE the tie in with Doc Brown and the Flux Capacitor as a backstory for the Carbon 14 rods, even if that's all just headcanon stuff. I love the idea of both of these garage built inventions existing in the same universe and being connected like that

Ahh I always had this explanation as my head canon since I was a kid. The proton stream bonded with the negative particles of a ghost making it sort of a 'lasso beam' to wrangle ghosts into the ring of a trap.

Maybe one powers the cyclotron and the other powers the entire rest of the pack? Or maybe the rods power the pack and the power cell powers the 'pack-to-wand-to-"Throw-it!"' ? I really don't know, and I really love Ghostbusters.

​@Code_Works actually, it's not as impossible as you might think. It is technically possible to create a small particle accelerator. In theory however creating a small nuclear accelerator does have its pros and cons, like a pro is its easier to maintain, a con is it could easily overheat and potentially melt.
