 ===== Description =====
-A short description of what the demonstration consists of, what it looks like, etc.
+Water drops through metal tubes to metal cans that are cross-connected, which build up opposite charges.
+A description of how it works can be found [[https://nationalmaglab.org/education/magnet-academy/watch-play/interactive/kelvin-water-dropper | here ]].
 ===== Purpose =====
-What is the purpose of the demonstration? What concepts does it demonstrate, how would it be used in a class?
 ===== Apparatus =====
-  * Complete bullet-point listing of the materials required to run the demonstration.
-  * Particularly including anything that isn't stored with the demo.
-  * If something listed here has a page elsewhere on the site be sure to make it a link.
 ===== Setup =====
-What steps are necessary to set up the demonstration? Is there any preparation that must be done ahead of time? Are there any things that the person setting it up should bear in mind, any potential problems that may need to be solved? Finally, are there any things that may be optionally done to 'go beyond' the basic setup?
+Fill the top tank with water and open the valves to start flow. Observe the discharge.
 ===== Notes =====
-Any additional notes that don't fit in the above sections can go here. Helpful links, background information, whatever you feel like adding.
+Needs testing to ensure it works properly, particularly that it actually builds up charge and is able to discharge properly.
