We recieve a very poor education in electrostatics in most engineering fields.
The bennet's doubler was a device that I was unaware of untill recently.
My first response to seeing it in action was "That's impossible, there's no way in hell that that works and isnt fake."
So then I educated myself and I built this afterwards with the knowedge I gained: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQiYFfV8Eoc&t=65s
In step 1, the central inductor is grounded and electrons flow from ground to the central insductor. At the same time, the two outer plates are electrically connected and a charge imbalance pulls positive charge in one plate and leaves the other plate negative.
In step 2, when we move the inductor to the other plate, we also break the electrical connection, leaving the other plate negatively charge, we also break the connection to ground and we place the two negative plates together.
In step 3, we ground the outer side plate and allow the negative charge to escape to ground, leaving the plate positively charged
In step 4, we return to the starting conditions and all of the positive charge in the outer plates move to the one plate as ground electrons move to the center plate to match.
The result of one complete cycle is that the charge stored in the plates multiplies by a factor of two. Hence the name : Bennet's Doubler
