The basic of concept how such a thing is powered (electricity) is so far removed from anything people did in ancient times that it would be hard to get them to understand that neither gods nor magic are invovled.
Smart "intellectual" people would certainly be willing to challenge basically everything they assume about nature, but I don't think your run of the mill farmer would be able to do that.
