Popular Post zKars Posted April 23, 2020 Popular Post Share #1 Posted April 23, 2020 (edited) If you are one of the people who understand pictures better than words, this should finally bring clarity to an often mis-understood subject of electrical current flow. Another way to look at this, is that VOLTS Is your undeniable drive to buy car parts, OHM’s is your wife doing her best to slow the purchases, and YOU are the AMPS, trying your best to buy stuff anyway!

Zed Head Posted April 23, 2020 Share #2 Posted April 23, 2020 At first glance it looks like some sort of kinky S&M bondage thing. Not an expert. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard McDonel Posted April 27, 2020 Share #5 Posted April 27, 2020 In matters of things electrical, I ain't the brightest light. No one has ever called me "Sparky." So in the furtherance of my learning I have a copy of Haynes Automotive Electrical Manual, wherein on page 8 the topic headline is "What is electricity?" The answer given is "No one actually knows." So now I know I'm not alone in the dark. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namerow Posted April 27, 2020 Share #6 Posted April 27, 2020 Ironic, too, that Haynes is a British publisher. Brings to mind an old saying: "If Britannia rules the waves, then why can't the British build a car that can drive through a puddle without stalling?" Mind you, it appears that the Brits were looking at practical implementations of electricity as early as the 1600`s -- long before the likes of Ben Franklin, Count Volta, Galvani, Volta and Ampere appeared on the scene. In fact, they apparently invented the words, 'electric' and 'electricity'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
