Carl Fredrik Ahl 5 Posted September 3, 2019 Hi, I see a film series on Netflix called "Better Call Saul". There is a guy called Chuck (Charles). He is allergic to electricity so he can sense if there is electricity. His brother had a guy put a fully charged battery from his phone inside Chuck's pocket without him noticing it and he didn't sense the electricity. Therefore his brother though he was mentally ill. I wonder, is there a current if the battery is not in use? Should he even have sensed it or is his brother mistaken? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swansont 7433 Posted September 3, 2019 There's no complete circuit, thus no current. Unconnected batteries do discharge very slowly; I think that's an internal reaction, but the current would be tiny. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
