Wanna break your brain? (or how electricity actually works) - GypsyDogs - 03-25-2025

Found a couple good educational vids about the physics behind electricity. (ac and dc)
You’re welcome, and I’m sorry..   lol

Part 1


Part 2

THX , Hope it gave you what you needed to fix your rig issues ! Confidence alone worth the time spent.
( guy on the second video thumbnail reminds me of when I was a teen !)
We could light up all the fluorescents in the laundry mat down the street with a C B radio. Kinda freaked out some in the neighborhood but I don't think anybody figured it out. It was us and the radio WAS a bit overpowered !
A good addition to the forums ! I'm pinning/stickying it.

U Boob would have been nice back then , I had to sit through years of classes ....the school used the US Navy training books so joining the Navy was the other option but I wasn't old enough and the school was only 2 years..

I broke this off from the above post, and added a bit.

Just watched , he's a pretty good teacher.  Wish some musicians I knew took his class. Probably just confused them anyway .
I enjoyed listening to the nerds he referenced. BTW , those guys argue among themselves all the time. That's how they figure this stuff out !
I was taught the water in a pipe thing too in basic electricity . lol
Now you've watched , Any guesses on how we lit the laundry with a radio?

If you liked these brain breaker vids. Check out particle physics , some relatively new stuff (in 2012) there on fields , even in space.
And a very peculiar gentleman named Higgs and his contribution to electrons , photons and bosons
