Guest guest Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 I tried that, too. Your bulb uses too much current to light up. Your body resistance is limiting the current so that even a flashlight bulb will not get enough current to light up, or even to glow faintly! This shows you how little electricity you are using to kill (disable) these germs!!! I calculated it's about 1/40th the amount used by a penlight. Real dangerous, right? hahhahh bG > Electrons are tiny charged particles. They all have the same charges > which repel each other.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 Some of us have built the 6 volt germ killer using a ammeter in the circuit that tell you absolutely current is flowing from point A to point B be it one foot to another one foot to hand etc. Yes current flows through the body. Jack TO BG>>>>>>>>Theory of electron movement through the body Dear BG, Do you mean that the 6V can pass the current through the body? I mean, if I connect myself to the + end of 6V with my right hand and to the - end of 6V battery with my other hand, will charge pass through me? Is there a way of finding it out if this really happens? Like, if I connect a very small light bulb to one end of the closed circuit, the light would still not light. So how can we make sure that the voltage is good enough to pass through the body? Thanks Reza baby_grand <no_reply > wrote: Electrons are tiny charged particles.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 Further: the current we use is very small on the order of a half a milliamp or ..5 ma. It's doubtful it would light an ordinary lamp like a flashlight lamp. Higher current can cause damage so we don't use it.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 Does it show any amperage? Also what about the skin effect? Do you think the current just flows on the surface from one point to another or does it pass through tissues?

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 yes, from 1 millionth of an amp to whatever you want. no skin effect with dc current, that's an AC current phenomenon. The current dives into you..don't worry about that, it goes through bones, joints, fat, skin, you name it. bG > Electrons are tiny charged particles.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 Yes it does show " amperage " (current) I use on the order of 0.250 ma or 250 microamp (ua). A very small amount of current. I have a 0-1 milliamp meter in the circuit along with a potentiometer for adjusting the current.

I envision an approximate equivalent circuit, but I'd like a bit more info to flesh it out. I thought bG's reference to electron motion in the presents of other electrons was good -- you know, 'like signs repell and all that' An equivalent circuit would be static. Bg's info made it dynamic. > > > > Electrons are tiny charged particles. They all > have the same > charges > > which repel each other.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 In the body the current tends to follow the blood vessels more since blood conducts many times better than the tissue. electricity follows the path of least resistance.
