Works well. Great for experiments.

Very useful for understanding and experimenting with electric charge and the photelectric effect.

Not the best, but not awful. Good visual for students when it's working properly.

If you've only ever used the foil-type electroscopes (the kind that usually come in a chemistry flask), you have no idea how great these can be. The solid needle does what it's supposed to do every time. Perfect for demos on charging by conduction, polarization, and induction, and it's big enough that my kids can see it at the front of the class. The price is hard to beat as well. Similar products in educational supply catalogues go for at least twice as much. If you're looking at this vs. the ones that are totally enclosed with glass, stick with this one.

I can charge it the normal way with rods and cloth but it seems it should beable to charge with a power supply but I get 0V across the device. I probably have to sand it or something but instructions would be nice. I hear that they only give instructions to teachers which is absurd.
