Well you get ions when electrons move from one atom to another, basically. Salt is a common ionic compound. :lol: Maybe the magic box makes salt?!

In some radio controlled cars they fit this sort of thing :D namely called a "HEAT SINK" it is supposed to catch air and cool it through the fins ;) never seen it used like this and would do bugger all except trap hot air from fanimould :lol: and heat up that nasty metal pipe that is already heating the air up anyway :lol:
a true hot air induction system :P

what next ? build a mini fridge around it and try to cool it down :lol:
