Reply to comment by Speterius in Why does the existence of magnetic monopoles imply quantized electric charges? by Speterius

Angular momentum quantization isn’t a postulate, it shows up when solving Schrodinger’s equation for the hydrogen atom.

I'm not sure i get what the Schrodinger equation solutions for the hydrogen atom have to do with the quantum nature of the electric charge.

I understand the electron shells, but how does that relate to the electric field being quantized?
