Did you know that everyday actions can generate significant static charges?
Simple daily activities can create surprisingly high static voltages:
- Walking across a carpet: 1,500V to 35,000V
- Walking across a vinyl floor: 250V to 12,000V
- Using vinyl envelopes: 600V to 7,000V
- Sitting on a polyurethane chair: 1,500V to 18,000V
Makes me think about all the times when I was a kid and would rub a balloon on my head to make my hair stand up. 😃
