I have always thought that they were worth the effort to clean them but I sit on my copper and brass until the price is right thank you for sharing this with us six stars brother

I've got bout 250 of those right now. I only break open the heavier ones with the transformers. I get a pickup truck bed load of them with the wire. Every couple of weeks.

I like the chunky square ones with the single transformer. The low grade board ones I might take off the smaller ones and put them with the motors and transformers I don’t take apart.

I like your "How To" videos. I will keep my eye open for the heavy Adapters.

A long time back I remember ewaste ben saying any adoptor above 6v is considered as transformers. However looking at this video, I realize this stripping is worth its money. For short time with little effort, you get copper, brass and sheet. A nice video.

The three pinned plug is from the uk and the plastic part is a safety future.so kids can't put objects into the electric socket.👍

Love scrapping these 👍🏼 lots of goodies

Hi Phil another great video Nice Content always enjoy your hard Work stay safe out there bro Regard to your family

I scrap those by cutting wire throw in adapters w/ nowire barrel when I have a Gaylord of them they go in for 20 cents a pound with other better ewaste. Easy peasy.

Hi Phil, great video, very informative, just love your videos. Stay safe

Stripping Adapters for Transformers and stripping Transformers for Copper-Copper using that Machete - wow - that works so very well - You told us about a Machete many Times and now we can see how easy it is ! You even got some nice Brass - it all adds up ! Thank You also for Your Explanations ! Canada should have these Metal Recycling Places to extract Copper - Alu - S/S - Gold - Silver etc,etc - why always China - why cant we do it in our own Countries ! We know the Answer - but don't want to get Political ! Canada and Australia and other Countries send Medical Wastes included in the Recycling Containers !!!! Yes 1/2 Pound is 1/2 Pound and Your Copper Container is filling up - we love Your Sessions and many Cheers from us in Australia !!!!

For the time it took you to do that, you could have spent the same time striping microwave or larger transformers, and actually made some money!

All that work for 2 bucks. Nope

I'm sorry, but you tried to justify the money you were getting for the effort. Let's see, $2 Canadian for a video that took approximately 18 minutes. This is nowhere close to minimum wage in the U.S. I'd look for something else. Frankly, I'd take the transformers as they are and sell them without breaking them apart. Also, the time spent breaking off the little brass pins doesn't seem to be worth it or even close. It takes a whole lot of them to even get a single pound worth. I've noticed many videos where the author says "it all adds up". But, I suggest to revising that to "it all adds up to a VERY SMALL AMOUNT of money for the time spent." If you are doing this as a hobby and don't care how much you make, have at it. If you want to be paid fairly for your time and car expenses, I'd absolutely pass on much of this. Something that could probably be worth the time to take apart is Romex wire to remove the bare bright copper. (You want to check ahead of time to make sure that scrap yards won't require you to have a business license to sell bare bright copper.) That I feel would pay much more per hour than taking apart adapters/transformers. Good luck to all in their future scrapping endeavors. Thanks for taking the time to make this KZfaq video!
