Little did Sir Michael Faraday know that, one day, 200 years later, the results of developing his discoveries would allow people from all over the world to watch reconstructions of his ground-breaking experiments simultaneously. He would be astounded if he could be here to witness our technology. Thanks to all of you for explaining, demonstrating and presenting these historic events. 🙂👍

FANTASTIC content. Thank you so much for bringing us this; much of it new, even to us Faraday fans. Case in point: that voltaic pile assembled by Volta and then gifted to Faraday for his own personal use is, for me, a literal sacred relic!

Suggested is that the Royal Institute extend their focus by spending Institute funds, or organize volunteers to perpetually maintain Michael and Sarah Faraday's Grave site so as to display the proper respect due both of them.

Simply brilliant! Every concept should be shown with a demonstration. Start with the first invention and work our way to the present. Use mind mapping a little AI a touch of graphic art. Ask a couple of simple questions. What inventions have made the quality of life better without having significant negative effects? Could be split into different categories. Health, environment and so on.?✌️🙏

I wonder, was there any use for copper wire before they discovered electricity. I mean there were no lights, motors so nobody would use copper wire for current. I guess there was metal wire for things like fences but not insulated. They had to "invent" that too to make those coils. I think he hand-wrapped it in silk, is that correct ? What metal did he use. The wire ends looked black, was that silver ?

Somebody really should supply the basic parts and package them up and sell them as kids experiments. Somebody probably has but they could be done as a monthly subscription deal. Im sure you could find twelve ideas. They could include a small book or cards explaining the finer technical details. You could even have two or three price levels with cheaper components for the lower levels or better ones for a more higher priced subscription. (batteries not included, unless of course you are building one) I would have loved this as a kid. I would probably buy them even now at near 50.

@@spindoctor6385 I am a lot older than you. You set out an idea in some detail. You could create a kit yourself and offer it to local schools as a try out. If it takes off, you could carry it further. Faraday was making new discoveries when he was older than you. I am 78 and I am planning to do an MSc soon.

@@manuellayburr382 True, I was just using my age as an excuse. I am always full of ideas (good and bad) for other people. If this appeared somewhere in a year or two, it would not be the first time I have seen other people make $$ following through with their ideas that I also had and just let fade away. I really think this one could work. The component are all pretty cheap, the experiments can be fun for any kid that is school aged 6-17. Maybe it could also link to an app or a KZbin channel demonstrating how to put it all together, the theories behind it and different things to do with the finished product. I would be a bit torn on that though, half the purpose is to get kids away from the screens and actually building something. But it could generate more revenue and it advertises the product while the product advertises the channel. I would need somebody more photogenic than myself for the demos. Anyway I will stop rambling. Thanks mate.
