EVE General Discussion

"Free" electricity is made of electrons in a overcrowded valency orbit, in search of a emptier valency obit. Think of those little fellas waiting to put their funsticks into a empty funhole by lack of enough funholes in their place... that's a charged capacitor for you.

How do you neutralize those guys? Either you provide funholes (like, pumping in positive ions with hungry funholes waiting for funsticks so they become satisfied neutral atoms), or let them flow to a place with enough funholes, or use electromagnetism to drain their energy so they're not so willing to find a funhole (FAI wasting their energy to produce photons).

So it's not about "neutralize energy". It's about fulfiling or eroding electrons' urge to fall into a valency orbit gap.
