Certain types of crystals generate a votage in response to changes in mechanical pressure.When you squeeze the trigger on a Zerostat you are applying pressure to the crystal thereby generating a voltage.When you release the pressure on the trigger you reduce the pressure and thereby generate a voltage.
According to the makers the voltages produced by squeezing the trigger and releasing the trigger generates voltages that are equal but 180 degrees out of phase with each other and thereby cancel out resulting in a charge of 0 volts ( assuming that the application and reduction of pressure on the trigger are relatively similar in speed).
In theory the static voltage present on an LP will be far smaller than the voltage presented by the Zerostat and therefore will be neutralised.
