content: I wonder why nobody has developed an ESD bluetooth profile for wireless ESD handling. You would simply pair your bluetooth ESD wrist strap with a PC which is grounded via mains or an ESD bluetooth station supporting multiple users.

content: Wow. One part of the wireless ESD protection bracelet is something real that could be manufactured. You put a non-contact voltage detector in a bracelet that lights up an LED when your body has a higher potential than the surroundings. After you discharge yourself the light goes out. The light therefore acts as a kind of warning indicator not to touch sensitive equipment while it is lit.

content: A ground connection is not effective unless it has a plant growing on the soil. Contrary to popular belief, it is not the root but the leaves which dissipate the leakage currents via photovoltaic induction.This of course, can be circumvented with a chlorophyll-infused grounding wire. It does however, require a couple of hours of sunlight and the occasional watering when the yellow stripe becomes visible.There you have it, a new business opportunity. I expect prompt payment of my royalties.

There was even a patent on the component. Needless to say it made a green staining mess when he smashed it.

content: Quote from: schmitt trigger on June 23, 2019, 04:35:07 pmReminds me of that old (possibly apocryphal) story about the telephone customer and her hound.TC = old lady telephone customerCS = telephone company customer supportLM = linemanHD = aging hound dogCS: "Hello. Telephone Company customer service, my name is CS how can I help you today?"TC: "I am having trouble with my phone. I seem to be missing many calls."CS: "How do you know you are missing calls?"TC: "My friends tell me that they call me but I never answer. But if they let it ring for a long time, then I finally answer.CS: "So you don't hear your phone ring when someone calls you?TC: "Right. But whenever I do hear my phone ring, I know someone is calling me because my old hound dog barks and moans first.CS: (Rolling her eyes, but taking down the trouble ticket.) "OK, we will dispatch a repair person to take care of your problem."TC: "Thank you. Bye."CS: "Hey, LM can you check out this trouble ticket? It doesn't make any sense, but see what you can find."LM: "That seems pretty unlikely, this should be interesting."So LM drives out to the customer's neighborhood and parks across the street. He climbs up the nearest telephone pole and uses his butt-set to clip on to random pair and dials the customer's number. For more than a minute, nothing happens. Then HD in the yard gets up from his nap in the shade, barks and moans, and goes over to the thing he is tied up to and pees on it. Suddenly, the customer's telephone starts ringing and she answers.Turns out that HD was chained to the old ground rod that dates from decades ago in the days of hand-crank rural party lines. The ground rod had gone high-impedance from decades of drought. But when the ring current came down the phone line, instead of going directly to ground through the rod, it took the lower impedance path through the chain out to the HD lying in the shade.Because the HD was getting along in years, he would put up with several ring cycles, but when he got really annoyed, he had trained himself to complain (bark and whine) and then go over and pee on the ground rod. Of course, peeing on the ground rod temporarily lowered its impedance long enough to allow the ring current to operate the ringer.(Note: older telephone installations used ring-current to ground as one method of selective ringing, especially on old, rural party-lines.
