  • Part 2 of 3 videos testing ESD-safe gloves, including a demonstration of the effect of high voltage at low current, and tests of some cheap, cloth anti-ESD gloves.

    I've been shocked with somewhere between 40,000 and 70,000 volts off a capacitor once.

    If you double the latex gloves on each hand the 2nd one would act like a sweat barrier to decrease electrical conductivity ? Ventilate the 1st pair by slicing a small slot on the backhand side of the glove and reinforce the hole or slot with masking take to prevent the hole or slot from widening. The air flow will prevent sweat from building inside the glove because fresh dry air is circulated between the 1st and 2nd glove as you move your hand, pumps air thru it.

    hey i’m going to be building a PC and I was wondering if you could give me some links to any anti-static gloves that you would recommend

    Why that ohms is not applied

    A DVM is not a good choice of meter for that type of measurement, it's too sensitive. It will be measuring all sorts of spikes from that generator and the capacitive effect of your hand and the electrode will give a false reading. I suspect the current is a lot less than you are reading. Try putting the latex glove between just the meter probes alone and measure the current also try an analogue meter

    Which glows is best

    No. No. No. Voltage and current are intertwined. You CANNOT limit current without limiting either the resistance of the circuit or the source voltage.
    High voltage = high current. A static shock can be tens of amps (a very high current), but it doesn't kill you because the overall charge is small. It lasts only a few microseconds. ie there's not a lot of POWER.

    It's not voltage that kills you, is that a joke? :D
    3:24 are you sure you generating 60mA through the wrist, you think that's small current for human body? If really 60mA(actually its 6mA) goes through, you wouldn't be able to release that pole...0.9A would fry your hand like a chicken...All current above ~10mA AC and ~50mA DC is DANGEROUS!

      Yes, I misstated the scale when I said it was 60 milliamps. I should have said "microamps". As the multimeter shows, it was displaying .06 milliamps, which is quite a bit less than what is necessary to be noticeable. And, yes, it's not the voltage that kills you. As you confirmed, it's the current.

      It’s not the current or the voltage but the two elements together that kill.

      Take a page from an “idiot” he actually knows a lot for how many times he shocks himself

      dc voltage is not that dangerous though anything below 50v is pretty safe

    Latex YUK, my hands always sweat in them. Try some good thick Nitrate Disposables.
