Basic Electricity - Resistance and Ohm's law

A tutorial on the basics of electrical resistance, resistors, and Ohm's law which describes the relationship between voltage, current and resistance. I also show you how to build a simple resistor + LED circuit.

I love how you show real world examples and all the sparks and fires. It makes it a lot more engaging especially so when you know the consequences of doing something wrong has very real potentially dangerous outcomes.

it's videos like these that make me second guess why I'm in college learning this stuff when amazing people like you explain it so much more thoroughly than any of my professors ever could, and it 's their JOB.

Sir... don't ever die, please! You are the best teacher I've ever had, and we're not even face-to-face! Your content hits the zen spot for understanding something that used to seem like an off-world language to me. With the deepest respect I can muster, I thank you. Leo.

Your videos are Awesome! It took me 2 years to fully understand all of these things myself, if I would have found this channel beforehand it would have taken 2 days. I hope your videos get to as many enthusiasts as possible!
Thank You!

That feel when you're an electrical engineer already and still watch Afrotechmods, because he makes good videos.

God bless you man. Please keep up this good work. I am from infosec. I wanted to learn about electricity. I always learn anything by visualizing and by imaginating it. So, your animated videos are very useful for visualization in mind. Thank you so much

Afrotechmods you are an amazing teacher, these videos always clear stuff in my head despite doing electronics for so long your understanding of the topic is very very impressive.

Wow! This is totally electronics for dummies. Thank You! This is what I need.

[tedspens]

62 and just now learning about electronics. I might have found interest years ago if somebody would have explained it the way you do. Subscribed and gonna check out some more videos. Thanks!

[boltmann]

I wish this guy still makes electronics videos. He's actually one of the best.

[relativenormality]

another great video from one of the best electronics channels on youtube. more please - happy to sit through adverts for your content!

"bad conductor, like this... er...dried out piece of carrot" has to be the most unusual choice of poor conductor to-hand I've seen, lol.

Brilliant video. You have really helped my son learn the basics of electricity today, thanks for making these basic vids along with all your other awesome vids.

[RDYS]

Nice videos, all of them. As a field service engineer for 30 years (retired now) I'll use your videos for examples to my kids. Well done.

At 0:22 - 0:23 you can watch the little LED's soul being lifted to LED heaven

[dmatthews]

Thanks for actually showing what happens when you run too much current thru an led, instead of just saying 'something bad will happen' or 'you don't want to do that' like the other videos!

The best tutorial about electronics on YouTube Great Job👍👍👍👍👍👍

[pastaman]

I've only watched this video and your LED video, and so far these two videos made by presumably one guy has taught me infinitely more about electronics than several lessons at school ever did. And this was a lot more fun than those lessons too.

[paulglad]

Great video! The extra detail you put in describing how it works helps a lot. Examples both written and in performed in real world are excellent. More examples the better! I've watched multiple videos on resistors but I learned the most from yours. Looking forward to more videos.

[mayankgaming]

best explanation about resistance
i understod by seeing this video with experiment and by knowing about wich colour have what amount
it i really a great video

[Mindful]

afrotechmods, your videos are superb, waiting for the next one!
