Wimshurst Machine

This easy-to-use device consists of two high resistance plastic discs 25 cm in diameter with equally spaced metal sections.

Product Overview

The discs are supported with two upright posts and rotate in opposite directions with a hand crank, producing substantial opposite charges which are deposited in the capacitors and on the metal electrodes. You can collect induced charge with the brushes and adjust the electrodes and Leyden jar capacitors for higher potential, thus generating sparks by lowering the system’s capacitance. It is mounted on an attractive wooden base.
