Static electricity is not really static. I experimented with this kind of electricity in the late 80¹s and discovered that ³static² electricity has a resonant frequency of ca 1 mhz. In a circut of that frequency, you can actually increase the amperage I was trying to find out how the Meternita machine works look at the coils. They are also resonant at 1 mhz. Mike Cechanowicz
