    Maybe if you used a step-down transformer to reduce the voltage and/or placed something with pretty high resistance in the circuit to reduce the current. Though, I’m not sure an electric eel would be able to provide sustained current needed to charge a battery without frying it. Maybe with some sort of inductor it might work.

    This is the coolest thing ever. Why don't more people know about you lot!? I really love the overall design and feel of Second Nature, but ofc the science is really why I'm here. Have you done a proper video on all the weird sensory superpowers bees have? The electroreception is an awesome way to grab pollen (and spiderwebs :( ), and their vision is amazing too! Add that to the cool ways they process honey and they're honestly my favourite invertebrates outside the cephalopods.

    I once kept an electric catfish as a pet. Probably my most interesting fish in 30 years of fishkeeping. Correction: The electric catfish is NOT a cousin to the electric eel. The electric eel is actually a type of knife-fish, where the electric catfish IS actually a catfish. They're not even in the same order, much less family or genus as what was implied by the use of the word "cousin" in the video.
