The wimshurst machine is an electrostatic generator, a machine for conveying high voltages made some spot in the extent of 1880 and 1883 by British organizer James Wilmshurst. It has an undeniable appearance with two tremendous contra-pivoting floats mounted in a vertical plane, two crossed bars with metallic brushes, and a brilliance opening plot by two metal circles.
In the Wimshurst machine, the two guaranteed plates and their metal zones turn backward habits passing the crossed metal neutralizer bars and their brushes. An irregularity of charges is initiated, improved, and gathered by two game plans of metal brushes with focuses set close to the surfaces of each plate. These locators are mounted on protecting help and associated with the yield terminals. The positive data collects the accumulating charges radically until the dielectric breakdown voltage of the air is reached and an electric sparkle sways across the opening.
Key Points:
1, This machine obtains a large amount of electric charge and high voltage (tens of thousands of volts) in the electrostatic experiment, and cooperates with other instruments to carry out experiments on the charge distribution on the conductor surface/the discharge of the power line/tip discharge/vacuum tube of the electrostatic plant.
2, Function: It can perform experiments such as electrostatic induction, spark discharge, tip discharge, and power change of capacitors;
3, Advantages of the product: The conductive plate is coated with high-quality conductive material, which is firm in use and long in life. It overcomes the shortcomings of the original aluminum foil and is easy to fall off, and can improve the electrification performance. It can be used in wet weather.
4, Discharge distance: in a relative humidity less than 60% environment, the discharge distance is greater than 4 cm; in a relative humidity less than 85% environment, the discharge distance is 2 cm;
5, Suitable for children over 8 years old

Aside from the shipping conditions, the machine worked out of the box. There was no packing material, just the machine in a box. Also included in the box was a bottle opener that was not secured and rattled around in the box and damaged some of the contacts. The company promptly sent me replacement wheels. They were very easy to replace and the machine worked perfectly. Although the directions were loosely translated from Japanese, they were not really needed. I just moved the balls until they were 4cm apart and turned the crank about 5 times and voila! Spark! If you're looking for a Van de Graaff generator, I highly recommend this one. Great customer service. (photo of electrified photo paper)
Handle fell off the unit and the base/stand had a crack in it, otherwise functional unit.
Straight out of the box it was great. The crack of the spark, ozone and really cranking hard to get a good 2cm spark. I give it a turn to relieve stress! Other two are Christmas presents.
It looked a little rough when I took it out, not the best packaging job but with a few adjustments, in minutes I had it working great. I pair it with the thunder drum and I have an actual thunder storm with lightening. Still working on cloud with rain but it is amazing science for my grandchildren and the children in the classroom. worth the $s. Be very careful, it not your father's static globe, it will bite.
Works great, be careful will shock the crap out of you!
