I love the outcome and hate the fact even my plant needs electricity now.

^^Also I’m just envious.

This could be done with regular magnets, no need for electricity
Show threadbistdunarrischDec 10
Sadly it cannot be done with just permanent magnets, then you need at least one contact point to stabilize it.

I could have sworn I’ve seen it done but I’m just now learning about Earnshaw’s theorem. Huh. TIL

Nice, thanks for referencing Earnshaw’s theorem :)

It cannot. Not without insanely cold temps.

Sorry but what is a USV? -.-

Yes, needed electricity is a bummer, but if it comforts you it runs only from electricity from my solar panels ;)

Sorry, I meant UPS, as USV is the German term for it.
Show threadbistdunarrischDec 10

Ah now I get it, I didn‘t know the term for it.

Aber ja das würde richtig Sinn machen!
