How to make a Van de Graaff generator (electrostatic generator)

[@Lidmotor]

That is a good "How to" guide. Using electrical tape for the drive belt and how to put it on the rollers was interesting. Thanks for the time and effort to make these videos. It helps many people and inspires them to build something.

[@TinselKoala]

Ordinary rubber bands of the right size make very excellent belts. They can be butt-spliced with a good grade of superglue to make the required length. Restaurant supply houses will have small metal bowls that can be taped together with metal tape to make smooth upper and lower capacities. Check out my channel for some small VGD machines made this way. For larger machines, "baby moon" style hubcaps work great, also illustrated in some videos.

Bro will our hair will stand or not

[@ashermanangan]

this is the easiest method I have watched. Thanks

[@felixmeyer1972]

Das ist eine gute "How to"-Anleitung. Interessant war die Verwendung von Isolierband für den Antriebsriemen und wie man es auf die Rollen legt. Danke für die Zeit und Mühe, diese Videos zu machen. Es hilft vielen Menschen und inspiriert sie, etwas aufzubauen.

[@Bastler48]

Very nice video. I like the trick with the coin tu bring the tape around the axis. Well done! (I already have a Van de Graaff Generator; Kit assembly from OPITEC Germany).

[@DilpreetSingh007]

This is really good.can you tell me how much voltage you have provided to your brushes.

[@hekerkat656]

how many volts did u use

[@jkifgjf2173]

What do I do if my pen doesnt fit on the motor?

[@speedysquibbles]

i actually got this thing as a project at school 2 years ago and im the only who succeeded the project

[@tuttuti123]

It have been two years to figure out what can i use to make the belt because I can't find the thick rubber band. Thank you very much sir.

[@raj9624]

Has it worked for you?

[@kiranmhatre1893]

is the lower brush connected to the ground of the battery ? and upper brush is connected to the can

[@michaelbreesjr3448]

very cool im making one for my science project this was very helpful..... Thank you.

[@hekerkat656]

same

[@MCsCreations]

Mine won't work. :/ I'm going to try this way. But one question. Those wires you wind around the ones connecting to the belt, is it insulated? Because I'm connecting them directly to the negative wire and to the soda can.

[@shazizz]

Very cool, I would like to see you in the up coming pop pop boat contest.

[@ThomasKim]

Thank you. Unfortunately, My country not hold pop pop boat contest.

[@shazizz]

We are and you are invited to join in.

[@lux_chin]

Thomas Kim What is the power supply? Will it work if I use some batteries?

[@christianmarotta8891]

+Sunny Lux He's using an atx power supply from a pc and i think that if you use batteries in series that provide around 12v you should power the thing up,anyway it depend on the motor that you use.

[@sandeepyouaremade4678]

Nice van di graf

[@amankaif7679]

Where did you put the grounding

[@saakshirajadnya93]

Cooll and nice!!!!

[@TechVentions]

U can always connect it to your hands while bare foot u are a conductor

[@michaelj.1082]

How to make this using cd player?

[@dianalauraesquivelvalentin627]

Thank you. Your proyect is amazing

[@sherrinfordholmes6653]

How much volt can it generate

[@KyleMakeStuff]

can you use the tape for the rollers and a rubber band for the belt or does it have to be the way you showed it?

[@kratigupta3128]

Please can you give some more information about the type of motor used here?

[@gokulakrishnan7268]

Battery how much old sir

[@rupertrussell1]

Thanks! Excellent video I can't wait to have a go at making one!

[@samanthalladones1864]

Where did he connect the motor to? Using the yellow and black wire....

[@malgorzatak7195]

Where did you get the power supply

[@DavinderSingh-jo4et]

Which wire is connected to a belt....... which battery terminal connect with this wire??????

[@christianmarotta8891]

What kind of battery i need for this generator?And it's important to use a dc motor or i can use a normal motor from a toy car?

[@nickolaszuliy184]

+Christian Marotta As far as I know, you just need a battery that the motor can run on. And I'm pretty sure the motor type doesn't matter, as long as it can spin the bottom axle.

[@christianmarotta8891]

Nickolas Zuliy Thanks :D

[@nickolaszuliy184]

Christian Marotta You're welcome.

[@amitprasad7417]

Sir,i am in real problem....please help me out...how will the charge be transferred from bottom to top????Is it necessary for the wire to be copper wire????and is earthing necessary?please reply..

[@RahulVerma-od8tk]

i had tried this but the motor is not rotating the pullies the motor itself not rotate when i put up the belt without best it rotates ..........plz tell me what can i do....... i am making it for my science project

[@KarimfNeon]

Восхитительное видео. Спасибо!

[@guillaumelabesse8161]

Can you tell me a good DC motor and a speed controler on Amazon ? What do I need and how to choose ?

[@KillaBee99]

Ok I start by saying that this is not my specific field (I've never been focused on science so much) but this creation seems stirring...what is this generator needed for?

[@abodreda2528]

Are the wires touching the isolating tape

[@artwork5333]

Is the two wires touching the belt?

[@brandontw01]

So, does the bottom brush deposit charge or just encourage the belts electrons to move?

[@edhaskell9110]

What power supply r u using i need one but not entirely sure what I need .please help .

[@thecuriouskrishna]

Really good👍👍 sir

[@gamingparadise7318]

Bhai simple dc motor se kaam ho jayega ki nahi

[@mjafs9671]

which type of type did you used for the belt

[@maanika19]

Insulation tape

[@DeepakDeepak-is9ro]

Can we use white tape inside the bottle

[@k-d-n]

Very nice! I LOVE your channel. Keep it up! :)

[@funbook3g484]

Pls can u tell me the exact name of that metal box like device company name or any model name ? reply ASAP

[@allnall4729]

What if you let it on for the too long? Would the charge leak?

[@hashemx1ify]

hi do the wires touch the belt ???? and if so or not does both or just one if one witch one the top or the bottom

[@ThomasKim]

barely touched.

[@davidkempton2894]

Brilliant. I like this Mk2 design better!

[@madhavgoyal6093]

Hey can we use something else in place of the can ?

[@notadeity]

Nice. I'll have to have a go at making one myself. Cheers.

[@mr.mungelikeboys2224]

How to connect charges carrier guide plz

[@princeemil753]

AWESOME!

[@nelofarta1665]

My insulation tape belt is not rotating. Sometimes , it does but not always. Need help!

[@46-krishnadevimk28]

even I have the same problem

[@mjafs9671]

which type of tape did you used the belt

[@bananabond7805]

same question did u find an answer?

[@nickolaszuliy184]

+MJAFS I am pretty sure it's electrical tape. Edit: It says all the things in the description.

[@kyledolor5257]

Can you make a Leyden Jar?

[@pinkirana949]

Very good sir

[@archigupta7995]

Can uh plz tell me the name of that device through which provide electricity to this vandee graff

[@wumbology3109]

Power supply

[@rahulbiswas6302]

What are you use to power supply?

[@harshnaaseri5140]

can you mention what is the voltage of the battery ? and will the voltage affect its working

[@ThomasKim]

5V-12V / 30kV~60kV

[@EhButU]

So dexterous - amazing.

[@ChuckNorris-jb4id]

Where is the bottom wire going to? Awesome vid thanks!

[@wumbology3109]

Ground

[@subhabarua1625]

I do not have some components you use .

[@pramodkumarnanda7653]

👍👍 interesting one

[@felixmeyer1972]

Was bist du stumm?

[@wwechampionalaap4870]

Hello sir.. !! I seriously need ur help I did everything u told us.... But i don't know how to earth the generator and is earthing imp. Because i didn't earthed my generator and its not working... Plzz help sir!!

[@stanleycarter6275]

You attach the bottom wire to the motor

[@knagtegl151]

Very Cool!

[@suryanshbaghel5900]

What voltage should be applied to motor

[@automobili2801]

Suryansh Baghel 1.5v

[@aman2426]

Genius

[@denjo342]

How many RPM does this DC motor make?

저 벨트가 짧아도 잘작동하나요?

[@ThomasKim]

유버미 TV 벨트가 짧으면 발생하는 전압이 낮아집니다.
