Sooo helpful and easy to follow. Thanks so much. Love your book, too! Just got 3 55AH lipo batteries..on line soon. Thanks
Solid information. Thanks.
Thank you for your videos. I watched this one with my 8 year old because he was asking questions about voltage, Watts, and amps after watching a lot of your other videos. This one answered so many questions for him in a way that I just couldn't explain to him.
Do you have a video or can you go over 24V systems?
I was thinking of going with 24v DC BBBatteries and I know nothing about the kind (numbers) of SOLAR I need and if it is better to have 24v battery bank? ??????????????????
Please can I come and learn from you
My Grade 8 daughter has been an academic achiever since grade 4 and specifically top achiever in maths. But the one area she just couldn't grasp since Grade 5 was electricity in her Natural Science subject. I've tried many different methods to laymanise the electricity issue but nothing really worked until I stumped upon your video. I've watched many videos and yours is the best by far. I showed her the video and you could literally see the light bulb go on. We watched it for a second time and she asked me if we can physically apply your example, so I said to her lets start small and build a solar power bank, the type you use to charge your phone or tablet. She used all your calculations, did the math and gave me a list of what she needs to build a solar power bank that will be able to power and recharge her iPhone X. I checked her calculations, which was 100% correct, then I sourced the different components. I'm extremely proud to report that she has a solar power bank that works extremely well and that she is now electricity wise. I would sometimes observe her looking at the labels on some of the appliances and know, why she is looking at the label. Big thanks all the way from 🇿🇦 South Africa 🇿🇦
I. LOVE. This!
This is AWESOME!!!!! Way to go kiddo!!!!! :) :) :) :) :) :) I wish I was eight and smart enough to figure this out. :) :) I'm still lost!
Duchl: explain to her that 1amp is really 1coulomb of elections passing a given
point in 1second. Have her research how many ELECTRONS are in 1 coulomb.
If anyone TRULY understands this a whole world will open up. Thank you for
a lovely message and family.
@@tedlahm5740..I will let her do some research. Thanks
How can i make my kids that smart?
I am 70 years young. Young man, you are going places and taking others with you. In my middle school days we wound an armature on a nail to make it turn. At the same age, your generation is gathering power from the sun, storing and inverting. Keep up the good work. Your parents must be proud!
Well, aren't you easily impressed, sir?
@@Kenneth_James … I don’t know if you are the fella that I complimented responding with humility or a troll absent any.
BEST EXPLANATION EVER!
Agreed! Even as a refresher its good and very practical
His book, "Mobile Solar Power Made Easy" is even better! This kid is on another level and actually knows what he's doing. Get his book!!!
You essentially summed up the electrical course I took in my first semester of computer engineering in 15 min. They should play this video in the first class of that course and let the students go home for the rest of the semester :) Great job!
There's some useful application advice here but this theory handwaving won't get you past the first test in an intro to EE class.
that won't pay salaries and tenure though
@GeoMac Granddad which one can kill insect faster, "72v dc 15watts" or "20v dc 15watts? I think the 72v because it has more volts but I'm ignorant.
@@BOREDANDWELLBORED
Bug zappers have much higher voltages but limited to very low current for safety. Similar to electric fence.
@@elgringoec so which one will kill the insect faster, the "72v 15watt" or "20v 15watt "?
Me at the beginning of the video: ". . .oh! Oh, now I get it!" Me half way through the video: ". . .oh. Oh, now I need to watch this ten more times because I'm totally lost." Please don't stop making these videos! A week ago I didn't even know where to start, and with your help now I feel like I'm starting to get a grasp on it. Thank you!
Completely agree.. 58 yr old here and I will think I'm beginning to get it.
same, girl
Jup, I paused the video for over 20 times I think to take notes. This way, if I study it a bit more with the examples, I might be able to build my own portable battery. Very well explained! Thank you very much.
Same haha 😄
I get it and then 2 weeks later I’ve forgotten at least half of it
I am an electrician apprentice and I learned more from your TH-cam than what I’ve learned from my apprenticeship. You’re able to break down technical information into easier concepts to grasp. Thank you!
Maybe you can help me out!
To figure out wattage of 220v US do you need to add both 110v wire amperage together first or not?
@@Laurel-Crowned Watt’s law. Power = voltage * amp. So watts = voltage * amps.
Where are you from Anita sengrath..?
You didn’t make it did you?
Recommend taking Physics II (Electric & Magnetic) you will understand the theory behind all this stuff. Plus you learn more about capacitors, resistors, inductors, transformers... more.
I struggled with the concepts of volts, amps for quite a while. The analogy that I made up that kind of finally made sense to me is this: If the electrical wire is like a highway of cars, then amps are like the cars, voltage is their speed, and watt (total power) is their effect (for example if they were to hit a wall). More cars/amps = more damage to the wall, and higher speed/volts = also more damage to the wall.
this one is pretty good
you definitely not make that up lol but this analogy got me through school for sure
amps is actually cars per unit of time XD
Only thing I would change is make speed LIMIT volts, not actual car speed (that’s more like drift speed of electrons)
Thank you. My visual brain is making sense of this now.
You are brilliant young man! I’ve been trying to understand this stuff for 20 years and you are the first teacher that I can truly follow. Thank you sir
I’m a 59 year old woman and I pull a 20’ Travel trailer behind my truck. I’ve never understood electric and this is a great video. I’m going to watch it again as I actually understood what you said I’ll just need it beat into my head a little more. Thank you!!
How did it go?
Yes,update 😃
I spent two years in Navy Electronics school. You do a great job explaining complex subject to a non engineer. A gift.
I went to Navy Avionics A School in the early 70s. I retired from a communications technician position doing about everything you can do in civilian world of communications. One place I worked our DC load was 1400 amps at 48 Volts. It was backup till one of the 275KW generators started.
Well done. I'm a specialist in my field so I frequently have to translate complex ideas into user-friendly information for clients who naturally are more concerned with the result than the actual process. That being said, if I can't get the basics across, things don't move forward, hence the need for 'translating' the info. And you just did me that favor. Thanks so much. Your explanation is truly top notch. Clear, functional, applicable... I already feel for more confident about my impending purchase of solar panels and related equipment. Keep up the good work.
That's right, the knowledge needed for applying existing technology to an application is a small subset of that needed to design a technology.
I find it amusing that there's better explanation on you tube then by most teachers in the world Great job brother !
Those who can't do
Teach
Yea I learn more from TH-cam than I ever did in school
@@brendonmasters and those who can't teach teach teachers 😊
Lots to absorb for an old woman, lol. I'm going to replay this daily until it sinks in. Thanks so much for this full description. It's been so hard trying to put all the partial snippets together. Thanks, Will!!!
me too
It is very cool that you want to understand though.
👍
I feel the same..... just trying to figure a solar unit for my home. We lose power all the time... And I would feel better just having something just in case... just essentials for a few weeks or so. This is so hard. I just canceled my inergy order after watching the review.. now I' m all like?? What do I do now!! ??
I'm writing it down as I go and it's sinking in so much quicker. It also means pausing and rewinding the vid to get it all down. There's a lot of info here. Much appreciated.
65 youngster herer. I replay lots of videos ...good for you.....then after a few times..the information "clicks" in.....remember. we didn't learn this as kids..❤🌻🎶
I’m a 52 dyi. and a retired manager, this is the best video i’ve ever seen on this topic. Thank you so much for sharing and taking the time to make this video.👍
I'm 37 and work in the electricity industry - non-technical role, but understanding the basics helps. Your teaching style is perfect for how I learn - thank you for really excellent content.
Your videos are truly very easy for the novice to understand. Thank you for sharing your talents as a very gifted teacher, your audience are very fortunate to have come by your series. Please keep teaching, really great for Van builders, especially us who are complete beginners! Blessings to you Mr.Prowse!
This video was literally more useful than two semesters of physics...
@COFASA I dunno, I find it pretty accurate.
My entire college experience was me YouTubing what the hell my teacher was talking about.... modern education is a complete rip off... especially financially.
@COFASA tell us why is the comment absurd? The profs many of them can not explain it like him! Why? Not they don't know but will take them a genius genious because students will flock to the to ask them all the time. The same thing this fine gentleman explains it easily! Students will have more respect for the confusing Prof than this gentleman!
@COFASA you invalidating their experience is also absurd. They learned more from a 20min TH-cam video, that's not their fault that's the fault of schooling
More so than Calculus 4 With physics class...Teacher was a Mechanical engineer but he sucked at Teaching
I'm a post secondary educator and can honestly say that are a natural educator. Slow, clear, simplified. Nice! Thank you.
In just the first 5 minutes the waterhose analogy and pressure made it instantly relatable and understandable, voltage seems a lot more simple now.This is amazing.
Watt can l say! this young man is a natural teacher and instructional talent. That's how schools should be taught. 🙌
You're very patient and good at explaining things for beginners. If I tried to make this video, I'd have talked about electrons and given formulas like P = IV and no one would have understood what I was talking about. You'd make a good high school teacher I think.
Michael Z
Most definitely a teacher!!
its called the triangles, or thats how i was taught. E over I and R . I find P over I and E or PIE easy to remember. Once you can picture where the number is in the triangle then you know what formula to use, divide or multiply.
i went to a trade school for 2 years. learned more from this video. 😂
tells me what we call schooling in this nation is rubbish.
Don't tell them !!! They would have to reconsider their position in the school system !
you're brilliant....I wish everyone with a deep understanding of their subject matter could explain as easily as you do - it's a real gift Will!
I wish I had found this video first when starting working in a DIY electric motorbike with a friend (who did already know much more than me). I did learn what is in this video before already but the way it's explained here is so concise, well-organized, and easy to understand. Well done!
My son is a commercial electrician and just explained how to figure out watts on my electrical components like phone, chargers, etc. Chargers for phones oftentimes neglect watts but typically have amps and volts. You have a gift of explaining concepts that make it feel less intimidating.
Thank you so much. I'm starting a job as an apprentice electrician and needed some help with the basics. This helped alot!
I love this! I have been so confused until now. Thank you so much! You explain things so perfectly I feel more confident that I can actually do this myself 👍
Right on Will! I am bass in class here with these videos, I learned all this information when I was in school, but if you don't use it, "you lose it". This video is completely approachable and understandable. If you are new to electronics, some of the concepts may seem confusing, but these are the essential stepping stones to electrical circuits. Perfect refresher course for me. Thanks Will!
Very good explanation Sir. I am certified by the ISCET and hold a degree in Electronics Engineering Technology. Although I am long ago retired as an old fossel technician, I still wish someone like you had been around when I first started. Blessings to you and your students. BTW, besides the solar cell analogy, you might consider using a transformer for more clarity. Whether step up or step down, the power is the same on primary and secondary windings.
I have spent 50 years in IT avoiding this conversation and here it is, simple as A, B, C - magnificent! Since I now have to use this information daily as a full time RV'er for the last nine years, I finally feel comfortable working with my 12vdc and 120vac equipment...you have changed my world! Thanks!
You are a natural teacher. This is such valuable information. I really enjoy watching your videos. Doesn’t hurt you’re easy on the eyes, keep on making these informational videos.
I miss your electric unicycle videos though. Those were fun.
This is a whole lot of knowledge in one pack. I've just got a whole new set of information to digest right now and in turn use it to step up my electrician work. Thanks a bunch
This is great, and very helpful. Watched this video several times while planning and building my solar grid. When i started I was feeling lost and overwhelmed, after finding your video i feel much more confident about what i'm doing. For some reason it just makes sense now.
Thank you.
YOU YOUNG PEOPLE ARE AMAZING...WITH PEOPLE LIKE YOU OUR FUTURE IS IN GOOD HANDS...THANK YOU
This is one of the best videos on TH-cam explaining the basics of electricity. Great video. Subscribed.
This is one of the single most helpful videos of the thousands that I have watched on TH-cam. Thank you very much!
Will, I used to watch you when you were living out of your truck/van. Not sure if you still are. Anyway, now I find you're teaching the fundamentals of electricity? You're the man. That said, this video is EXCELLENT. You are very good at making the complex easily understood. This is one of the best explanations I've ever heard. And I've heard many. Great video. Thanks for putting it together.
Thanks for so many top quality videos and information over the years. It has been awesome to watch your content evolve. Cheers.
loved your video. thank you for making it. i’ll have to watch it several times to absorb all the information you provided.
I can't believe I actually understood this. I've watched several other videos and I was lost immediately. Your video 🙌 the basics is where it's at. Build from there. You teach so well. Especially to people like me. I can't learn from a book. I'm a hands on/visual learner. You made the material relatable. I love it. My brain is overloaded and I'm excited. Love the channel. Thanks for being a good teacher 😊
You are a BRILLIANT teacher. You make complex Subjects much easier to understand especially with all your simple analogies. Thank you
Will, you're a true pro. Not only are you well versed & extremely knowledgeable, you also deliver & present in such a fantastic demeanor. Your videos help literally tens of thousands of people. I was lucky to find you a few years back when I did my van build. I remember when you had like 2,500 subs. We miss those unicycle vids haha. Very nice work, bud! If you ever need the help of a CPA, let me know!
Thank you 😁👍 I'm glad I can help. It's amazing how well these videos have done. And will do 👍
@@WillProwse Hello can you recommend circuit quiz book? Also do you offer tutoring lessons?
Very good job and delivered in a very good cadence...not herky jerky or confusingly circularly repetative, like some from trying to jump out of a bucket. You delivered in good order.
Hi and Hello.
I gather people for a good cause:
I wanna provide people with Links leading to bad or toxic people.
Mobber, Racists, Sexists, Bullies, more. I got the Links and i
need help with reporting them.
TH-cam is in a bad state and i think you heard of that.
Many complain about it, its strike-system and its CEO: Susan.
But... I mean... complaining about the State of the world is nice
and dandy, but... how about acting? Doing something?
So i made a Wiki where i store Links for all to use. Yeah, unorthodox, i
know, but whatever. Its my Try to help.
I know this was random and also overly summarized, but
think about it and consider. You can make a difference.
I tried to explain it as good as possible, but the Wiki will tell and show
you more, i guess.
@@loturzelrestaurant you failed to mention anti-american marxist leftists, progressive globalist control freaks and such.
Wow, your talent of verbalization of concepts to the lay person is really meaningful here on YT!!
This is a more intuitive explanation than a lot of other videos. I feel like I'm getting a better grasp of the concepts and what they really mean, not just a jumble of jargon and formulas.
You R a brilliant teacher. You're actually making me understand electricity, a. miracle!!
by watching your videos, I feel like I can get an engineer diploma at any time of the day. That's just how I admire of how good you are in explaining these things to dummies like me. hahaha
I'm planning to setup, in the future, a small off-grid system at home, and your videos are really giving me inspiration and confidence. hehe
Ok, I’ve been looking at videos about this stuff for a while… this is by far the best. Just needed something something to start out so I can beginning doing my first small solar project. Thank you.
Good instructor, Will. 👍🏽
I could never get the solar knowledge sink in until I watched this video! I Keep revisiting it because every time I watch it I either reinforce something or I picked up something new. Best class ever! Now I feel I have a solid understanding and thanks to you! I bought two of your book one for myself one for a friend. Thank you Will you are awesome!
Every now and then one stumbles across pure gold.. I only found this channel a few days ago and it has already become more useful and enlightening than 99% of what else is out there.
Your explanations are so clear and simplified. I think you are one of the best on youtube for electrical/Electronics stuff.
Countless likes, Subs and Shares for your channel bro.
This is the best basic electronic lesson I've found. Fantastic thank you so much I've learned a lot.
Amazingly clear, crystal clear explanations of solar power wiring, sizing, fusing.
Best I've seen.
Just bought your book on Amazon.
Thank you!!!
Mate, your analogy of the hose was brilliant. The entire video was perfect for me and I've been wanting to learn these basics for some time. Keep up the good work. Stew - Downunder.
I was struggling to understand volts/amps/watts and this explanation was exactly what I needed 😊
You're the man, Will! Thanks so much for taking the time to create this. It's great information and incredibly helpful!
I like the waterfall analogy for series vs parallel. The voltage is determined by the height of the waterfall.
You could 'arrange' 2 waterfalls side by side (parallel) so that the amps (water flow rate) doubles and voltage is unchanged. Or one after the other (series) so that the water flow rate (amps) is unchanged but the voltage (height) doubles.
Aha, I thought I recognized you - you helped with my plantar fasciitis! I bought the book, too. Glad to see you're thriving on your channel.
You are one of the BEST Explainers I have seen on YT.
So Clear, so Simple. Examples
Excellent Job Sir
WOW! Hands down the best explanation I've seen so far (everything else has been confusing or contradicting). Taking notes & will check out your website. Thank you!!
Our professors can't teach. That's why most genius engineering students come from abroad. My electronics professor showed up at class every time to look cool and spew industry jargon.
I totally agree. Very well explained and easy to understand. He is a gifted teacher!!!
Bugger off sister, I found him first. Lol
I'm trying to become an Electrician so watching your explanations & everything that I didn't know, I probably wouldn't understand from anyone else's perspective but you really made it easy for me to understand & I'm so happy you did that because I would be confused as heck as to how to figure out the basics of Electricity. Thank you so much man!
you are amazing man. You are so good at breaking things down in the simplest way so people can understand them faster
I am new to solar power and understanding how generating power works. This video is exactly what I need to understand my solar power needs. Thank you for the great video and making it easy on how and where to get started.
Will, you’re the first one explain wire size and fuses. Thank you! Love your channel.
Thank you for explaining this so that ordinary people can understand.
everyone is an ordinary person... from electricians to the guy that cut your hair, or delivered your pizza. We all have different strengths. Hopefully you can bring yours to the table.
I like the fact that you break down things to basics without any condescension.
Thanks for this. I have never understood it in all my years. I'm getting an RV now and trying to put together the best system to be able to stay off-grid for a long time. This has helped me get underway, although I'll probably watch your video a few more times and take notes. Well done for explaining it in this way
This is so helpful will. Thank you man!
Super job Will....
As many others have stated, this is the best explanation and breakdown I have ever heard. If electricity and other sciences were taught from an applied perspective like this, you would have much greater general understanding and so much less fear of such topics!!!
Clarified some concepts that were holding me back as I explore going off-grid. Well done and keep up the good work.
Will...THANK YOU! I love these teaching videos! Invaluable dude! You’re awesome 👏
That was awesome..you are just marvelous....you are very well articulated and have really broken this solar system thing down to my level. Well appreciated.
I don't know what level you are talking about but sometimes it feels like i start at a lower level , so maybe it should rather be called up to your level ?
After years of struggling, i now finally understand how this works!! Thank you so much!!
I'm new to your channel but I am so glad I found it. Excellent tutorial. Thanks for making and I look forward to exploring the rest of your videos!
I studied engineering in undergrad and grad school and I must say the explanations you give sir are top notched and superior in terms of efficiency
Hands down best comprehensive explanation of the electrical system! Perfect balance of engineer talk and simpleton analogies. Great job and thank you!
I searched for TH-cam videos before to help me understand this, but it is only when I have watched this video that I now understand the difference between volts, amp and watts. Thank you for sharing this video.
Will, you helped me understand electricity! You're a great teacher my friend! Keep on, Keepin' on
I was explaining this to my apprentice in the car and now this magically pops up in my recommended videos. Phones are scary 🤪
Happens to me all the time. It is scary.
@Rylan.......the "scare" factor is greater than you may think. I will not confirm nor deny the aforementioned sentence.
If you multiply the phone by the conversation you get wait watts?
Thank you, Will! Everything explained plain and simple. Your knowledge just helped me immensely.
The bucket analogy opened my eyes. Very good job!
Wow I love the clarity of your speech here! Thank you.
Really helpful
Thankyou bro God bless you
very accurate details coming from a service tech, thanks for the lesson on the solar side .
I've been sitting on my solar system for almost a year bcse I was confused about wires, and calculations etc... I've watched many, MANY other videos over this past year and was just so unsure about connecting my system... Then I discovered your videos today.. OMG!!!!! I FINALLY GET IT. YOU ARE AN AMAZING TEACHER. Thank you so very much. I took so many notes and your examples were spot on for my understanding. BEST ON YOU TUBE IN MY OPINION! THANKS AGAIN. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Im not sure why anyone would give this a thumbs down. You did an excellent job explaining all of this so THANK YOU! Great vid!
brilliant, I'm a veteran tech and you don't irritate me, well done.
I felt like i had a little too much cortisol in my body at the start but as the video went along it disappeared like dew to the sun !
Great video Will, big thumbs up, looks like it could easily be on one of my cable channels on TV! And I learned some stuff too :) Love you, keep em coming, you're a great teacher :)
I just jumped into and electrical class. No prior knowledge. This helped so so much. Thank you!
So well explained! I used this video to study for my ISA Utility Specialist exam. I was struggling with the electrical portion. Well done!👍
Will, You are an AMAZINGLY effective teacher and instructional designer, and you are articulate and smart. You have a real talent that not many people possess. I've been an instructional designer for over 40 years, so I know what I'm talking about. You have TALENT for taking complex information (probably in many areas) and making it easy to understand and remember. Keep using that talent!
Thanks Will!
Thank you so much for this! This saved me a lot of reading as I navigate my Van buildout. Keep shining!
I'm a newbie, for sure, and I found your video most helpful, Will. Well done!
I'm starting school next month to get my electrician certificate. I'm a 28 (starting later in training) and a female so I am beyond nervous but very excited to start. It's always been a passion to work in this field. This video has really helped me feel more confident to start. Thank you so much for making a beginner feel a bit more confident starting! I spent an hour watching, rewinding and taking notes from you.
How’s it going?
So great, thank you!
You are an excellent teacher! Very clear explanations. I have been learning a lot from your channel about solar power systems. Using your information to guide me in setting up an emergency backup system for my home. Thank you!
I learned all this in high school about 40 years ago and when I heard your video for the first time,, it was like new with the exception of the terms.
Now, while listening to the video for the second time, I guess the knowledge is sealed.
