ElectroBOOM How does you contacted them by email or by PM?

Oh shunt. I just missed the Electroboom Meeeetaaaaaaa.

Hey doesn't the current lags in an inductive circuit? 10:11

gimme da meter

ElectroBOOM ur videos are so good

Thank u for the like! I am currently binge watching your videos! I saw the 1 million subscriber video. You should sing a song in Persian sometime! Ya got a great singing voice

This explains why my house is full of lightbulbs.

I couldn't have said it better

Exactly what I was thinking right now.

Yep, exactly my thoughts as well :D

Subscribe Kurzgesagt for more such things, ignore if already done.

Yeah because it means the insulator has burned off, causing short circuits in various places. There's no good way to fix that.

John Michael Stock no shit. It’s a joke

Yeah. There's a little truth on that. Unfortunately, Transformers don't have any opening to refill that smoke ;)

you let out the factory smoke!! you cant fix that!

Every electronic component works with smoke, but once it's out it's broken. And they added no refill valves because the want you to buy new parts

actually from experience not that much or not at all, the temperature will be very high but for short time like a flash and something will break the circuit so just the outer layer of the skin is burned up and you you just left up with shame and the bad smell.

@@mmawad100 It's a great smell. I think the heat kind of cauterises the nerve endings too which means less pain. Or I may have just made that up.

Because it did

Happened to me yeah it's not fun trust me lol.

Gimmedahmeettaahhh for being the pedantic shunthole who caugh it! :D I am a poor, unemployed engineer who doesn't own a fancy LCR yet :'(

Hi Mehdi, can you just look into a product that says it can decrease current consumption and thus reduce the cost of paying utility bills? I don't have the equipment to test it at home... This is the box it came in photos.app.goo.gl/OWe8679034jHoOWg2

OK , got it.

ElectroBOOM I love you man you make me laugh every day and I tried the vacuum thing but I failed but I like your videos keep up the good work

ElectroBOOM do you know anything about cathodic protection? If so could you help me on my cp1 test?

lol yeah I love it, Mahdi do it on a T-shirt I'm buying

Is he talking about Thomas Edison? Haha

Bingo !

I have the same variac, I think I'm doing it wrong. i.imgur.com/0g7FugJ.jpg

2018 A.D.

some 3-3 and half hours of footage for 11:16 mins of video

Anyone noticed half of it happened the next day?!

yes indeed xD it goes from like 4:30 pm to suddenly like 1:30pm towards the end of the video. Time traveling much? :D

Probably somewhere at the point where he put fuckin' sear lines into his goddamn fingers. Christ

that made me feel the pain just looking at it!!

dankvader 214 I need that xD

Imagine dis: ElectroBOOM but everytime he says shunt he gets shocked or burned.

@@asianboi2867 or gets SHUNT!

@@J.Crystal1248 or he has to witness his Tesla coil getting destroyed?

@@asianboi2867 Nah, this'll be devastating in all aspects ;)

7:24 -unfortunately- *AND fortunately*

It would have been so much funnier if he said unfortunately. I'm going to start using that now lol

if it makes you watch twice, that was a good decision!

Clouder I was just looking down here if I am the only one :D

Clouder should get the meeter. He is making people double watch the videos. :)

ElectroBOOM can you explain why vape are exploding?

Funny I had to watch it again to look at the clock LOL

good one 😁

Oh shunt Up

you're such a shunt head

You're a DC-head!

Squid SQuiddly Same..wish i had a professor like him but instead my professors were paranoid beings who wont even let us work on high power labs like power system (advance) lab,etc and our role was only to note reading while lab attendants do all the interesting stuffs!

(Walks in room with transformer and burnt fingers) So, let's (zap) SH*** OH F***!! SH**! I was supposed to turn that off before I spoke to you.

*Shawn Scientifica* I can already hear him speaking with his accent in my head

Squid SQuiddly icu everywhere

Your face is like a octopus

No it hasnt, thanks for the info :-D

Also there is a simple way to show this: take small (5-10VA) 220-12V iron core step down transformer, and slowly raise the voltage on its 12v winding with your variac, starting at 0V, monitoring the current; if the transformer is good, at 12v you will see nearly a sine wave current, but as you will go higher, the current will become more and more like shown in the video, because beyond nominal voltage the core will start to saturate.

Thankyou, i have saved your text to file for later use :-D

nice explanation

Next time I want to call someone a s****c*** I can just call them a shunt :)

It's all fun and all that he gets electrocuted from time to time but he surely knew this was going to happen. I would advice him not to do these things or step down the voltage beforehand so he won't get burnt and it would still be equally funny. Mehdi, I like your videos even with less explosions, just want you to be safe.

Probably one of the funnier things electroboom said

I used some 12ga wire, and a couple of spare banana plugs to make a shunt to install across my DMM's 10A current meter inputs. I used a power supply and 2-ohm power resistor to put 1.000A through the current meter, then adjusted the length of my shunt until the meter read about 0.1A, with 1.0A actually flowing through it (divide by 10). I had to trim and resolder the wire multiple times, but after about 5 tries, I got to 0.098A and called it good. This allows me to make current measurements beyond the range of the DMM with reasonable accuracy (5% maybe?). This shunt only works with this one particular DMM, and only on the full DC-amp (not mA or uA) rotary switch setting. I don't think I would use this to measure anything over about 40A for any extended period. The shunt would start to heat, and it's resistance will increase, causing error. I always plug the shunt into the DMM first, then the leads into the top of the banana plugs of the shunt. That way, I don't pop a fuse on the DMM if the shunt comes loose.

I was about to say the same thing, eli the iceman, voltage leads current in an inductor

SO FUCKIN' TRUE! 😎

zztop3000 ElectroBOOM is actually called: Mehdi Sadaghdar. Got it?

lol 😝

I know, that looked horrible. Like his skin was plastic and the wire melted itself into it.

Yeah I always thought all the grabbing of burny bits was more sleight of hand, for our amusement... not so sure now I kinda feel bad for encouraging this kind of behavior. But I’ll still gladly take a meeta:)

You know, some people really enjoy to feel pain. In almost all of his videos you can see him getting electrocuted or burned so either he's very stupid, which I know he's not, or he's sadomasochist. I bet he's having a donjon room in his house... :P

I think it's more he sets MOST of those up, yes he usually gets bit, but he designs the skit with that in mind to mitigate most of the risks. I do not think he MEANT to do this one, though. This one is probably the worst, or second worst, him grabbing the falling MOT jacob's ladder was probably not planned, either

@Step Two And A Half Yeah, I think you’re on to it, he showed the injury because it’s NOT the norm, he got bit and wasn’t really expecting it.

Oof

If@@thischannelisdead2839, then why is it still alive?

@@timmyg8888 good point

i was confused about this too. ELI’s ICE and all that. but the scope seems to be showing a leading current?

@@muluskuvuch I'm not alone after all. Would like to hear others too on this. I see the scope showing a leading voltage (green leading yellow)

I think it was just a bad choice of words. "Leading" as in "being further ahead on the time scale", which translates into being late, or lagging. That's my take on it

He said it the wrong way round.

What seems pictorially leading in graph is actually lagging vs time. Think about it!
