Part 6/8:
A particularly interesting observation was that merely touching the coils with a plastic rod caused the voltage to rise slightly, indicating a capacitive effect or potential charge induction. When he touched the coils directly, voltage dropped quickly. Similar effects were seen when he touched the middle of the coils—highlighting the complex electrical properties present, including potential capacitance and induced charge.
Continuing Experiments and Future Plans
Paul outlined his ongoing and future experimentation strategies, including testing larger coils, experimenting with different coil lengths, and improving grounding techniques. He acknowledged that previous attempts with larger coils resulted in decreased voltages but expressed intent to refine his methods.
