Save money by using energy-efficient capacitors in your home.
A capacitor stores energy so it can be evenly dispersed by the appliances that you use in your home. You may want to buy capacitors to save money, but they don't lower your home energy bill by a substantial amount. Ideally, though, a capacitor will ensure that the power drawn by an appliance in your home is used to actually power the device. This reduces the energy that is wasted instead of used. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
1. Use a capacitor to power devices and appliances that use a low amount of energy, such as radios or even flashlights. Wind the crank on the capacitor or shake it up and down. Check the information included with the capacitor to find out which way to generate energy. If you're supposed to shake the capacitor, a magnet located inside the device will move up and down, charging the copper coils inside.
2. Place the capacitor next to the device you need to charge. The energy will be drawn out of the capacitor and into the device. This works with low-power devices because there is just enough energy generated by the capacitor to provide the necessary energy for the device to work.
3. Attach a larger energy-saving capacitor to the breaker panel in your home. The capacitor should store some of the energy used to power appliances in your home. The capacitor will release the energy at a later time when it's most needed.
