I wish YouTube was around when I studied electronics Would have made such a difference to me Comment from : Jay Dee

Your videos are the best on the internet for my money but I’m sure they are the best on YouTube Excellent work I was wondering if you have ever considered doing a video on electric shock Comment from : Stack Bundles

Whole life wasted 🥹 Comment from : rabia fatima

Connecting the negative lead to the longer pin on your capacitor just made me 2nd guess everything I thought I knew about electronics Comment from : ChadAF

I went to college for Chem e, and I am extremely concerned at 35 years old I went into the wrong field I just started electronics as a hobby, and after finding your videos I believe I missed my calling I’m currently building a handheld tool that can detect water behind polyurethane, as I built my Tesla coil and am happy with it now! Please keep up the videos!!!! Comment from : ChadAF

Getting into the atomic level serves no real purpose but knowing how and why is everything Comment from : mike

I'm amazed how many views these videos get Comment from : James Renz

Excellent video !!! Comment from : Mohd A shk Shk

Thank you for the video! my teacher only explained and tested the equations, without the concept of capacitor itself This immensely helped me, thanks again! Comment from : sprigatitooooo

7:34 to 7:54 I'd like to see demonstrations of this Comment from : Michael Reaves

This video is amazing We need more explanation like this in other component Comment from : Ryan Azmi

Hi, could you please explain something that’s confusing me right now? In this video the electrons are flowing from the negative to the positive of the battery but in the transistor video the electrons are flowing from the positive to the negative Which is correct or are they both correct and it depends on the type of circuit? Comment from : Neil Cooper

Thanks! Comment from : Kevin M Gates

boyle anlattilar da biz mi dinlemedik aq Comment from : Asokanta

As a previous Electronics Technician, from the Vacuum-Tube era, I appreciate the way you explain with illustrations the concepts of components Awesome Job! Thanks! Comment from : Brian Forbes

In my high school auto-shop class, one quickly learned that, even if it's sitting harmlessly on a workbench, never pick up a "condenser" (an old name for a capacitor) It's a 2" long metal can with a wire attached It will hold a 12V charge until it's picked up, completing the circuit between the wire and can brIt's a shocking experience Comment from : Wayne Brinker

Great job…I still don’t get it 😅 Comment from : Affa David

wow i have no words other than saying thankyou Comment from : hppc

My college lectures need to watch this😂 Comment from : Daven Andrew

love your videos, insanely helpful Comment from : Chris Claugus

your videos are so much helpfulBut I request you to plz change intro sound🙏 Comment from : Tanmay Kulkarni

This helps me understand my problem with my tv Now i understand that it is probably a faulty capacitor Comment from : Devin Lutheran

Please, release a video about explain capacitive, inductive & resistive load! Comment from : Mainul Islam

Im a noobie and I just wanted to ask Why is the resistor after the LED? Shouldn't the voltage be reduced before it reaches the LED? Comment from : RJEEY

Thanks So Much!!! The explanation is so good and simple, Everything is easy to understand You made it easy to understand Thanks So Much!!! Comment from : The Gemini_16

Hi Sir, I have a question For touch screen switch and some smart light bulb, when you turn off the switch, the light bulb only dim and not completely turn off but when a capacitor is added between the live and neutral cable, the light bulb is completely turn off Able to illustrate what is the reason behind that? Comment from : Ben Lee

WOW! Wish we had this video on the Internet in 1990 when I was getting my BSEE degreeThe electronic circuits classes and labs would have been a whole lot easier to understand! Comment from : BC me

Beautiful Loving your videos and your pedagogical approach You offer plenty of remediation which is great for an older student like me with ADHD Much appreciated Comment from : Dr Reginald Finley, PhD

Well explained! Thank you for sharing! Comment from : Gruber Power

Fun fact: on a strictly technical level, capacitors do not store charge, they store just the energy - the net sum of charges in a capacitor is zero It's a fun fact to remember, but for almost all intents and purposes that simplification is understood and only the "ummm ackshually" people may try to correct you Comment from : Cloud Chris

So they're almost like redstone repeaters on minecraft Comment from : Derrick C

Well, this is helpful, I don’t think it adequately explains the distinction between a battery and a capacitor Both are for storing energy Comment from : Justin Maxwell

ok Comment from : Cuu Am

Great explanation Comment from : Christopher Mpumba187

I don’t think that the electrons move along the wire as shown I remember watching another video which explained that Comment from : mrsanchaz2003 fernando

Saala ab lagta hai school or college m padhai ke naam par g**nd hi marwai😂😂 Comment from : pawan sen,Vicky

After watching several videos on capacitors this was by far the best explanation Comment from : Austin Ebaugh

Electricity and resistance I knew this 45 Years ago Comment from : no

I took a dc circuits course years ago Plenty of stuff hadn't heard of before in class There was a guy from our area named An Wang who used capacitors to make the first computer logic circuits to make a 5v 1 bit or a 0v 0 bit Comment from : Ted Baxter

Aluminum pronunciation 😂 2:00 Comment from : Steven Ngov

I enjoy watching this videos rather than going to class😢❤❤ Comment from : Paul Danster

This channel is a blessing Comment from : JS Baltimore

WOW! Thank you You are a black belt at teaching!!!! Comment from : Michael Payne

Not sure if this is the proper place to ask this, but How would I discharge a capacitor? I have been just desoldering them hoping they are empty Comment from : Nimajneb

July 2023 - Thank you for this amazing video I know it took a lot of work to put together, but you covered everything and left nothing to the imagination As was said before, you put other instructional videos to shame! Thanks again! Comment from : Dave Boyer

Thank you for your videos Thanks to you I got a job at a power plant in Mexico Comment from : King Carp

Washer airconditionsand dangerouse if wired wrong Comment from : BBW

I like how they show this with a diagram of a open and close circuit switch Comment from : BBW

I just built my first circuit on a breadboard 2 days ago Even for an absolute beginner, this was so easy to understand! I’ve watched other videos but this was by far the best! Keep up the great work! Comment from : TheYTPguy

oh so basically minecraft Comment from : uopuol

Just call an electrician Comment from : Joch

Great explanation! 😊 Comment from : Curt Piazza

Excellent!! Comment from : Nickson Kaigi

好酷 Comment from : Ðean

How long capacitors can actually store the energy? I've been disassembling some electronics/motherboards and stuff in recycling center and one thing we did there was that we cleaned circuit boards as much as we could, so we also pulled all capacitators out, usually just with pliers or side cutters Does this mean we have always been in a danger of a shock? Wow, didn't even know that, I've probably yanked hundreds of them out, lolbrWell, most electronics there was probably been years out of use, so capacitators probably were out of charge, but there was also pretty new stuff time to time Also, there was pretty large capacitators like microwaves and radios have, those were such chunky boys! Comment from : Glyxis

Thank you so much, this was really helpful❤ Comment from : life is awesome i confess

couldn't explain better Comment from : TheFrieber_

I use to be afraid of these because I never really understood the mechanism and principles behind these things (capacitors, resistors, diodes, transmitters etc) These things were included in our physics syllabus Everything I studied just went above my head All the teachers were just very bad at teaching topics like these Now looking back in the time, I wish those teachers would've taught these concepts like you did Now I am not afraid of those concepts and it's all because of you Thank you so much for clearing my mind on these concepts You are a true sensai 👍 Comment from : Himalaya Verma

Some industrial ceiling fans like kdk have a square capacitator but fans in india have cillinder capacitator Comment from : Mr Spotter

I really wish this kind of stuff existed 15 years ago when I was going to school for electronics I might have actually completed my degree for it Comment from : Jawsjawsjawsrg

wow your video is amazing I blew my capacitor in my voice modulator it still worked but I couldnt understand why know I do excellent stuff Comment from : Mark Casto

Thank you Comment from : Void lon iXaarii

If a capacitor stores energy for only 2 seconds, what happens if we used 2 capacitors? Will it become 4 seconds or the voltage/current doubles or other Comment from : Zebra Dove Facts

U r greatman Comment from : yasir 7

Excellent Comment from : Muhammad Zeshan

You are the best electronics engineering channel I wish you the best Comment from : Abdurrahman Eniç

Thanks for so simple explanation ❤❤❤ Comment from : Tasfia Anisha

very well explained Comment from : Blank by default

AnonymbrHello It would be very interesting to make a video and talk about what happens if you use a 100v capacitor where it was originally 50v brOr 50v where there was originally a 5v capacitorbrbrwhat happens to the microfarad value during use and what happens to the reforming of the capacitor, or will the life be shorter when you apply 5v to a 50v capacitor or 50v to a 100vbrOr 50v to a 200v capasitorbrbrCan someone say something about this? Comment from : Ford

I don't know why I understand scientific concepts more here on you tube than how how I did while in highschool 😂 Comment from : Free -Dance

Doesn't the capacitors discharge even when connected to battery Comment from : Baku Mhaku

Interesting stuff Comment from : Canuck

The flux capacitor can hold 121 gigawatts, know it all makes sense 😂 Comment from : JEKitchens

paul: do not touch the terminals of a capacitor as it can cause an electrical shockbrMehdi: hehehe i wil touch wire a#$^&*(*&^$#@#$^&*&^$@@@#$^&^^&*@#$^&*&^@#^$ Comment from : Cabbage

why resistor is placed in series Comment from : Jims

This video is an example of how video lectures are more efficient than teaching on white boards Comment from : Goth Majesty

I would like to use this video on my reporting ❤❤ Comment from : GG Zephyr

Thanks sir for brilliant explanation now I have super clear mindset about capacitor Comment from : Mohit bista

I’m a doctor in the UK specialising in anaesthesia - I must say these videos are amazing brI need to learn a lot of physics including electronics for my speciality exams and these were a life saver! Thank you for your hard work on making these videos! Comment from : Jay Aldous

Can we use same material for both the electrodes of the capacitor? Comment from : முத்து கிருஷ்ணன் க

Can we use any resistor or what size resistor should we use to discharge a capacitor? Comment from : Kurtis Cal3msetccdwell

Good teaching Comment from : William Graves

I always thought capacitors looked like water towers on circuit boards Comment from : MrBej

ReSet🥰🥰🥰369brget well everbody 🥰🥰🥰brThanks forn sharing🥰🥰🥰Thanks for sharing🥰🥰🥰 Comment from : Steve Levy

We use to charge up a condenser from a car distributor and toss them to a "victim" and it would shock them Comment from : Fernando Barajas

I was told of the formula Volts x 2650 / amps to get farad amount(this is done with a/c unit running) if your meter didn't measure farads I believe this is correct? Comment from : Fernando Barajas

Is it OK to use condenser instead as that's what they're called when baught with points Comment from : Fernando Barajas

Is there a value on capacitors that will state how long they hold their charge before natural discharge? Comment from : KENNY Broomfield

Amazing The best video on the subject Thank you very much for such wonderful videos! Comment from : Vladimir Astrelin

Too good an explanation Thanks so much for clearing my doubt Comment from : Shiv757
