Electric radiator *date not exact only year*
In 1709, Sir Issac Newton invented an electric generator that inside had a rotating glass sphere. Francis Hauksbee later improves this invention. http://energyquest.ca.gov/time_machine/time_machine_date_test.php?begYear=1800&endYear=1810 https://www.google.com/search?q=electricity&biw=1366&bih=657&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=19GCVcXBJ8TLsAX0oqfQBA&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ#tbm=isch&q=1709+electric+generator+made+by+issac+newton&imgrc=DUnHzQH0lHNeAM%3A;H6ddkYXQ4MUmIM;http%3A%2F%2Fupload.wi -
Ben Franklins kite flying experiment
Ben Franklin suspected that lightning was an electrical current. He decides to test his idea to see if the lightning would pass through metal. Using a metal key and a kite, he and his son prove that lightning is really a stream of electrified air, known today as plasma. http://energyquest.ca.gov/time_machine/time_machine_date_test.php?begYear=1800&endYear=1810 https://www.google.com/search?q=ben+franklin+kite&biw=1366&bih=657&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=C-WCVZ2IHtK2ogT2irPACA&ved=0CAYQ_AUo -
Leyden jar *note, only the year is correct. No exact date*
In 1760, acientists studying electricity in the Neatherlands found that electricity could be found in water in glass jars ad then be conducted by metal wires or nails. http://energyquest.ca.gov/time_machine/time_machine_date_test.php?begYear=1800&endYear=1810 https://www.google.com/search?q=water+can+be+stored+in+glass+jars+and+be+conducted+through+metal+wires+or+nails&biw=1366&bih=657&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=3ueCVfeuMMPgoASWxau4Dg&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAg#imgrc=cNWGhcvmgWW90M%3A;GY93uddLcjnK -
