I’ve been tinkering with an old transistor radio from the seventies—those electrolytic capacitors still seem to have a little bite left. Think we could coax them into powering a small chemical reaction for a nostalgic blast?

Sounds like a classic mix of sparks and nostalgia—just make sure the burner’s heat doesn’t turn those old electrolytics into a fizzle instead of a fizz. I’ll keep my safety glasses on, and maybe a spare capacitor on standby for the next experiment.
