@douglassmalls6934 Жыл бұрын

@Tango Dragonfruit That wouldn't work, most explosives need either heat or a powerful shockwave to detonate. For example ANFO, a common explosive that is readily made at home, requires another explosion to set it off. Just fire or electricity won't work. You need to connect the wires to a specifically designed detonator and that would require greater voltage. So you would need to connect the alarm voltage to a relay or other switching device to tell the detonator to ignite.

Piece of advice from a fellow multiple-alarms guy : the trick is to have the alarms close enough to one another so that you can't fall back asleep completely between 2 alarms. Like, having 10 minutes between alarms is useless, because you're back to a deep sleep after 10 min so the second alarm is just as bad at pulling you out of sleep as the first one. From my testing, the optimal time is 3 minutes. 5 is acceptable, but less efficient.

Make the capacitor holder two pieces by splitting the body along the circumference midplane of the rotor disc. Then make it to where you can secure them together with 3-4 equally spaced screws accessible on the front circular face. You could even make the capacitor holes a little smaller so it holds them more snugly, and then the caps won't rotate in place when the alarm clock goes off.

Or just put large metal pads on either side of the wheel with a little notch each leg can fit into (to make changing them out easy,) and treat it like a brushed motor

You can improve your design by adding brushwire to the capacitor legs to keep them from bending and then also adding a divider between live and ground on the igniter. This wave you'll have almost a guaranteed chance of having all the capacitors blowing up

Is it just me or every time mehdi makes something like this I want to make it using a micro controller and simplify the whole thing 😂 I love the chaotic nature of analog systems though lol

It may be because he took apart a whole alarm clock only to realize he only needed the contacts of the motor...which I'm not sure if he realized, but he could have just used to drive the capacitor wheel instead of a whole dissected drill.

Glad I'm not the only one who thinks this! Hahaha. I used to think Mehdi did it because his degrees are in pure Electronics and just worked as an engineer but I saw someone say he has engineering degrees so he probably did all that in school and just prefers the chaos of analog design 😂

I mean, what's simpler? All of this -- or -- all of this plus a microcontroller? Only the clock seems replacable.

I was thinking the same thing. Kept waiting for him to bust out a ESP32, but it never happened. 😂
