Simple Electrostatic Motor– with simple HV power supply

This is simple electrostatic motor made from three water bottles and a coat hanger. To power it I am using a simple manual voltage multiplier power supply design by Thomas Kim. It uses an electronic fly swatter with a series of high voltage capacitors that are connected in series. This video was inspired by Rimstarorg’s latest video showing a simple Oleg Jefimenko ‘corona motor’ that most people could build with easy to find items.
