It’s just a phase. They will get over their reluctance.

It’s just a phase. They will get over their ~~reluctance~~ resistance.

(Sorry, I had to)

Transformers don’t deal much with resistance though…reluctance I was referring to magnetic reluctance which is the magnetic analog…more applicable to the transformer in this case. Thanks for the interesting exchange 🙃

Today I learned that magnetic components of the electric system use a different type of resistance. It's not the same as inductance though?

Huh. I live with a power engineer and he's never bored me to tears with this one!

Honestly I don’t know much about these things but have been around electrical engineers! I looked up a few things I will admit 🙂

This threads capacitance for humor is remarkable

It's also shocking, if you're not careful with these powerful puns.

I recommend meditation in this case. Ohm... Ohm... Ohm...

Oh Henry! did that one hurt.

Let's just hope the daughter doesn't amp 'er rage at the betrayal.

Say watt?! I hope she doesn't blow a fuse either.

I'm taking a rest. These jokes are too much. Maybe just Faraday. Then I'll be back.
