Super Capacitor w/ Spark Gap Demonstration

[@tariqelageli6552]

I can smell this video!! I hope you have a fan for the ozone ay? I love your videos, great channel!

[@MadPlasmatist]

haha thank you! Yes, the spark gaps are connected to a custom-made activated charcoal air-filter at the other end of the hose and I use a good vertical fan with an open window to immediately pull the ozone out. You make a very good point for everyone - always remember to discharge your capacitors, vent your ozone, be safe and enjoy! =)

Nice video=)! Though I find it risky to name it Super Capacitor as some people might think that this is how super-capacitors are constructed :D

[@MadPlasmatist]

This is the most powerful traditional capacitor that you can easily make by hand, please be careful with it =)

[@trentsuveges7622]

Now that’s a Capacitor!

[@zachreyhelmberger894]

A rotary spark gap should work pretty good!

[@flavioernst902]

Pretty op for the first experiments😜

[@flavioernst902]

I cant see the point why you overengineer those sparkgaps. Just put a few copper pipes in parallel to spread out the energy, put a fan on it and you are donne... Otherwise pretty cool setup. I recommend tuning the audio in editing. When talking increase volume and when experimenting decrease volume

[@MadPlasmatist]

Thank you. This is only my second video, luckily I'm a fast learner. The heat these spark gaps are generating is by no means small. That's why I created the world's first water cooled spark gap. It's a real thing =) It works real well. I will have properly adjusted volumes in the next videos, stay tuned for more!

Your audio is too low when narrating man, otherwise cool stuff ..

[@MadPlasmatist]

Yes it has improved, I have never made videos before =)

[@T2D.SteveArcs]

@@MadPlasmatist oh cool, well its great to see people giving back to yt, I take it you knew the audio was too low? Well good work anyway hope to see more from you mate, Steve

[@MadPlasmatist]

@@T2D.SteveArcs Thanks =) I actually didn't know the audio was too low at the time, I had just copied the videos straight from my phone - I plan on making an update to this someday, but it's legitimate history - you'll slowly start to see how the "water-cooled spark gap" came to be, and now what it is to become - a rare and special view from the eyes of the far future =)

[@T2D.SteveArcs]

@@MadPlasmatist oh wait are you the guy who has been saying you invented a water cooled spark gap and "it is Nobel prize worthy" ?

[@MadPlasmatist]

@@T2D.SteveArcs I simply understand the power of what I've discovered, it simply is worthy. Plus 2 new science experiments, true radiant energy and well, in time I suppose, I might earn one.
