There is something wrong with your measurements. At time 1:44 the current waveform should be showing a time constant and "rounding" of the leading edge as well as the trailing edge as shown to be occuring. The waveform should be symmetric. This is really strange. It seems you are using an oscilloscope to read the voltage across the resistor to get the current but your waveform is not right. How did you do this? GH
If I could love this video, I would a dozen times. It's incredible how taking the time to make a video with examples is a thousand times more helpful than a textbook for everyone who prefers to learn visually or hands on. I've never been very good at learning much from a book.

we are a manufactuer for inductors components, i wonder if you have interesting? thanks.
that was cool. this guy knows what he's talking about. when you know what you're talking about, the explanation flows like water.
Finally. Very ,simple ,and obvious explanation. For more than ten years inductors were magic to me. I never needed to use them in digital circuits but always was wondering how they work. That is so simple! Thanks. Do more videos about them! Also about units used and transformers.
Using a square wave to demonstrate the effect of frequency on the behavior of an inductor was used to great effect in this video. Just looking at time/current plots doesn't often get the point across but showing how a series inductor can transform a square wave into a triangular waveform (and explaining the current lag) really gets the point across. Thanks.
I learned more from this video than years in school.

Great job, it’s hard to find videos today that can do things simple enough for you to understand but still gives a basic understanding of things.
Your videos are short and too the point. THANK YOU! Very educational
the best video explaining inductors I've ever seen... thanks a lot.
this guy is a great teacher

I know this is a two years old comment. I have nothing against this channel except for thanking them. But to be honest with you. Its not about how great of a teacher he was. Its all about how much attention you're paying to what he said. Watching a video seems to be the best method to attract your attention thus allowing you to absorbed the information without any disruption or disturbance(if that even a word). I've observed that many people would instantly understand a topic if they were to search an explanation over at youtube or internet. This perhaps because of your willingness to pay attention. At school, You are most likely forcing yourself to understand which has backfire on your memory instead of absorbing information you have block your memory for you have no interest in learning.

Thanks for this video! I'm studying for finals on Electricity and Magnetism and this video really helped me to understand inductors. You made it way easier to understand than my Physics professor. Thank you!
oh boy this is the best ever video based on inductor, you have so much clarity in the concepts
You have kept me interested enough to warrant a subscription. I am learning electronics on my own and need explanations of what is going on in circuitry. You make learning fun! Thanks for posting and I will be viewing more of your videos.
This is great! I studied modules on fundamental electronics in the earlier years of my course but it's all a bit fuzzy now so this saved me a lot of time. Nice one.
I love electronics but my learning disability prevents me from keeping up at school. Your video is very helpful to me though, because I can learn at my own phase by watching your videos anytime I want.

serious: can you explain or describe your learning disability? I am genuinely curious about how something like that can come about, and how specifically having such a disability hinders your ability to learn? thanks.

megamanxu I'm at the bottom of the class no matter how hard I study. I sometimes bang my head on the wall during exam week. Some of my classmates at high school have a bad hobby of cutting classes and sometimes drunk but they still got better grades than I do and I never cut classes. I live in a developing country and although I never been evaluated by a doctor and diagnosed with learning disability but I know that I must have some learning disability by comparing myself to my classmates.

bobskie321 Electronics classes in many schools are mainly taught with giving the students the theory of how things work and then they can apply that learned theory to experiemental labs. It has been done that way for decades. For a lot of people, they eventually learn the abstract concepts by rote memorization while filling in gaps of practical knowledge with labs and later throughout their career. For others, leaning these multiple abstract concepts is just too much. There is nothing concrete for their minds to figure out and they go into a hopeless tailspin of despair thinking they are somehow broken because the other students get it. Nothing can be further from the truth. First, you just learn differently. Nothing bad about that. Second, most students don't even grasp the significance of what they are learning until 2 or 3 years later down the road, but they are fortunate enough to be able to memorize so they can get through the tests. You can learn this stuff, and you are by your own admission. Quit selling yourself short and seek out more remote learning outlets (like these videos) for your learning. I'd also suggest a few self learning books on electronics as well. Eventually, your brain will have enough practical knowledge that the theory will start making sense. And even if it doesn't, there are plenty of people in the work force that know how to apply real world practical skills without knowing the background theory. Just know where you can apply those skills and where you can't. Best of Luck to you - and keep on trying!! :)

Outstanding video and explanation. Thanks!
Great video mate. Really appreciate how succinctly you summarised the topic.
There are people out there who tend to complicate even simplest things. You, however, have the gift of making complex ideas simple and easy to grasp. Thank you.
I love your use of an inductor to show the action of an inductor. That is the kind of thing that gets people thinking.
this was an excellent video. i came here because i'm in a networking class and learning that fiber optics is used to eliminate the problem of inductance. you explained everything perfectly. thank you
Great video, thanks for taking the time to make it, you're an excellent teacher.
My favourite electronics channel! Keep up the good work.
you had me at "Generally Speaking..." the best of the best that I have seen. thank you.
Wow, what a clear explanation ! I wish I had seen this video a long time ago, Lol. Thank you so much for the clarity - this is well presented .Thumbs Up and subscribed ! Cheers, gk.
I'm really enjoying your videos, your method of teaching is excellent, thank you!
extremely helpful video!! i hate physics and this is my last semester, but i'll start watching your vids, really helped, thanks a lot.
Clear, simple and informative. Make more, and show more changes so it is easier to comprehend the effects; e.g. first showing the 5mH inductor and then changing it to 10mH inductor, or something like that. If that can't be done, then explain why, or if it has no effect at all mention it as well.
You are surely raree and unique. Hard to find someone with this knowledge and is great teaching and sharing it to ppl.
@timberw01f Thank you. Although one thing that annoys me is that Google's transcriber ALWAYS turns "volts" into "bolts".
Perfect video. Thank you so much. You educated someone today.
Wow! Now I understand it. Always wanted to know how inductors work. Many Thanks for imparting your knowledge.
Great videos, best i could find so far about inductors
Excellent video ! Thanks for taking the time to make it !
Good video! Covered basics and showed some unusual aspects as well.
you sir are a legend the way you describe things!
Thankyou! Very helpful! And you cleared up my questions with capacitors!!
Explained in very easy terms. very helpful. 👍
i am so glad i found ur videos, they r AWSOME!
Thank you! It was really well explained and easy to understand.
Great video and straight to the basic point. Thanks.
I love your videos! Keep up the great work!
Damn! If I had seen this video 20 years ago ... I guess I'll have to build my own fluxcapacitator and find a power source for it =) Excellent video!
Very helpful and well illustrated. Thank you.
Nicely explained sir I learned a lot from this.Keep doing good work
This is an excellent tutorial.
well, it does act almost like a short circuit when plugged to a dc source, but this is only until it is completely charged... I really enjoyed the video anyways, and I've been watching your videos and all of them are great and helpful. Thank you very much!
Didn't have a clear idea of inductors until i watch this one. A very nice explanation indeed..
Welp, its going to be a long night, I have 50 videos to watch! This is great simple to understand content!
Nice explanation. Love your videos!
What a great video.
yesssss!!! just what i asked for, thanks afroman!!!
Hey superb man continue the good job I like your explanation way
You are explain very good and deeply explain main purpose and work of inductor ,so your video is very useful
Thank you for the explanation. .keep it up man!
FANTASTIC videos. thanks
Best explaining methode, *I love it* Greetings from Indonesia
Excellent and clear introduction
Another great video...
just what i was looking for really good video Thanks
Mannn... the info was so smooth to ingest.. that's hw i dreamed of the education.
Very nice explanation!!
You're a genius at explaining! I finally understood inductance and filters. Could you do a tutorial on the NE555? Thanks in advance! Ric
I thought this was going to be just like other videos I've been watching but nope, it's the best.
are you an excellent teacher...please keep making vids, i am still waiting for the basic voltage and resistance videos ..i just saw your amp vid
Great explanations! Keep making more of this videos... ;)
Brilliant as usual
perfect explanation keep up the good work
Im a freshman in electronics engineering and this video helped a lot with understanding the basics, i tried to read it a head in the text book and got confused lol thanks! :D
All of a sudden when I watched this video I realized how I could make a magnetic detector, for Arduino projects. Inspiration- you never know where it comes from! :D Nice video!
I could love this video .video really helped students to understand inductors
very nice video and easy to understand
Excellent explanation !!!
good to learn about inductors from you.
You are waaay better than my circuits professor!
thank you! really clarifies what and how inductors "store" energy
Thank you. This is very helpful.

Thank you... very clear and nice explanation... !!!
Hi... imagining you had exactly the same number of coils and current, voltage etc, but different size ferrite cores.. what difference would you see between a small vs very large inductor?
Excellent ... well done ...
Great video! Thanks
Please do a video on Capacitor,really appreciate it
This was brilliant!
awesome, nice to see youre back. nice scope btw :P
Also, I clicked on ''Show More '' and I am now using your Amazon home page too ! And can donate later... Quick question: Do you have any induction water heater plans ? I am interested in making a home water heater to efficiently heat our hot water. Thank you, gk.
Dude, you are amazing..
very usefull , i have learned it easily!!!
If i am winding mains wire around a ferrite ring is it possible to get a to big ferrite ring (12.ouh) ? (I have seen that type in PC powersupplys)
Thank you, sir! Bless you!
