VOLTS, AMPS and WATTS explained - Simple explanation for off grid campers.

[@liammcerlean6020]

Simplicity is the ultimate form of mastery .. bravo to you for doing an excellent job in making volts, amps and watts simple and relevant ... many thanks and much appreciated.

[@DTSquared]

Thank you, I'm glad you found it helpful.

​@@DTSquared is 80v dc 15watt more energy than 20v dc 15watt? (Solar panel issues)

Thank you so much for making this video and explaining it simply. Cheers from Australia.

[@DTSquared]

You're welcome, glad it was helpful.

[@Morning.star114]

Genius 👍

[@DTSquared]

Thankyou glad it helped

[@tolu619]

I've been a science geek my whole life, I studied physics in the university and this is the best visual representation of these concepts I've ever seen! Beats the water analogy! I couldn't really remember the difference between Amps and Watts and this just saved me!

[@alexs4112]

Thank you, I finally understand! 🎉

[@DTSquared]

Thanks, I'm glad it helped you.

Ahmaguurd that was exactly the explanation I needed for setting up my off grid/ solar shed, I was getting so lost! And that outro, so satisfying 😌

[@DTSquared]

Thank you. So glad it helped. I’d completely forgotten about the outro 😂😂😂

[@jpisty]

This is an excellent explanation

[@DTSquared]

Thank you so much for the positive feedback. I'm glad the video was helpful for you. Dave

[@brandonlurssen1751]

super helpful, thank you. Spent some of the videos trying to remember where ive seen those eyebrows . . . Tyson Fury

[@DTSquared]

Glad that my video (and eyebrows) added to your understanding of electrical theory. :-)

[@dolores2716]

Thank you! I've been wanting to learn this because of the van solar videos I've been watching. This is exactly what I need.

[@DTSquared]

Thanks Dolores, it's always nice to hear from viewers that found my videos helpful.

i realize it's pretty randomly asking but do anyone know of a good site to stream newly released tv shows online ?

@Ezra Garrett Thanks, I signed up and it seems to work :) I really appreciate it!

[@ezragarrett7026]

@Elian Dean Glad I could help =)

[@jasonblake97]

This makes more sense now thanks

[@DTSquared]

Thanks glad it helped you 😀

HOWEVER, electrical current flows *from the negative *to the positive (opposite of the animation @0:50)

[@DTSquared]

"Conventional current" flows from positive to negative whilst "Electron Flow" flows in the opposite direction as you correctly point out. I went with conventional flow since both terms are universally used and that is probably the direction most people think of current flow. Also it doesn't affect the specific calculations or theories explained, but thanks for contributing the additional information.

[@MJA5]

Thanks! nice

[@DTSquared]

Glad you liked it

[@nniyer]

Hi, did anyone tell you that you look like Capt. Hastings in the tele-series based on Agatha Christie's novels. No offence meant. Thanks for this useful video.

[@DTSquared]

Can't say I can recall being compared to him, but I normally get compared to Rodney from Only Fools so I'll take this as a win. Glad you liked the video.

Well . . you pretty much screwed the pooch right there at 0:45 when your cartoon diagram showed the electrons (electricity) moving from positive to negative. In real world, the electrons move FROM negative TO the positive. So . . . sorry dude. I have to ditch you right here. Good luck on the next vid!

[@DTSquared]

Hi, Hopefully the pooch is saved as I referred to “current” and don’t think I mentioned electrons at all. As explained in an earlier comment there are two well established terms when referring to the flow of current. "Conventional current" which flows from positive to negative whilst "Electron Flow" (which I think you are referring to) that flows in the opposite direction as you correctly point out. I went with conventional flow since both terms are universally used and that is probably the direction a lot of people intuitively think of current flow. Also it doesn't affect the specific calculations or theories explained. If you’d like to see an even more detailed explanation relating to the flow of current or specifically energy this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHmsmZqulttsgrs explains how the electron flow has less to do with the actual transfer of energy which is more a function of the electromagnetic fields around the conductors. Thanks for contributing though.

@@DTSquared Thanks for your reply.
