Undergrad Static Electricity -- How best to generate it and use it?
Thank you for taking the time to explain that to me… yes that electrophorus thing looks very interesting. Will definitely be playing around with something like that. Very cool! Last question : what does this thing do ? : https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07L13VNZW/?tag=pfamazon01-20 It says negative...- TheGolferman

Undergrad Static Electricity -- How best to generate it and use it?
Wow, okay, thank you for your answer. So you are saying that if I can maintain a strong negative or positive charge in my object, without it discharging, Then the imbalance in, let's say, the pieces of paper, will continously be attracted a go towards that object. And how would you go about...- TheGolferman

Haha, no, nothing like that. I would like to be able to pick up very light things (small pieces of paper for example) by hovering over them with this handheld device.- TheGolferman

and when I say hand held, I mean like actually hand held. Not much bigger than a tennis racket for example.- TheGolferman

Hum... thank you for the answer. So you are saying, a hand held device, which is charged with a lot of static electricity is not realistic ?- TheGolferman

Undergrad Static Electricity -- How best to generate it and use it?
Hello friends, Was wondering, how would you go about charging an object with a lot of static electricity, and that I could hold. Just like if I had a balloon I just rubbed in my hair but, i don't know, 1000 times stronger... Is that possible, and if so, how could I achieve that ? Thank you...- TheGolferman
