Thread: JNAT Triboluminance:or Pizzaelectric Effect

I've never seen anything like that, obviously I am doing it wrong.
I want to see it too

I have seen the "balls of mercury." Never noticed a tail really nor have I noticed luminescence. I wonder if this is a similar phenomena to St Elmo's fire, obviously on a much smaller scale.

I think it’s more like what you see when you chew a mint lifesaver in the dark. I remember seeing a video of someone mashing several packs of them in a blender in the dark. Looked like one of those luminescent emergency lights.

Found the image.

That's the same color the bandaid wrapper adhesive makes as it comes apart.

Try honing your razor on a slab of iron pyrite and see what happens.

??????????

Just a hint. The sparks will fly.

For the last 2 nights honing i have seen rolling bouncing balls on my Nakayama with each Nagura..
Today i filmed a few seconds

It could be caused by a highly polished surface, or static,or aliens but probably highly polished..
