lesics ur ruining ur stats by releasing 3 videos after another, spread them out to daily/weekly releases

Hey would love to donate. Don't want to use Patreon and have recurring payments. Your tiers come out to be $12, $24, and $60 a year, and I think for the quality here and over the years, that's an easy range to donate each year. Unfortunately I don't see a way to do this. Do you have anything set up? If you do, that will be an easy donation from me. Thanks for everything you do!

There's a cardinal error in the video - the installed capacity of Hoover dam's electric generators is not 2 Watts as stated at the beginning of the video, obviously! A single AA battery would be more powerful. 2080 mW is 2080 milliwatts, that's 2.08 W. Hoover dam's installed capacity is actually BILLION times bigger - it's 2080 MW (megawatts) or 2.08 GW. Check the metric (SI) prefixes, please. Should an engineer do such mistake, he would be fired, probably (or someone could potentially die from such mistake).

can we get a video on radial + axial winding of brushless motors?

@@enotdetcelfer Okay, totally understand that. One thing you can do is that join as one of our patrons and after one month cancel your membership. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/grKieqWfnKeodWw.html This video will help you to cancel your Patreon membership.

Greetings from Keban Dam in Turkey, do you do generator and turbine maintenance?

@@havakuvvetleri2.anajetussu534 My own involvement was SCADA and Communications. However my work took me into dewatered penstocks and inside generators (sensor inspections). Great working in a hydro electric plant. I'm retired now.

Man do I love hydro power, but you would never see me within a kilometer of one because oh my god that is terrifying, being even on it is scary enough, but being inside of one of those pipes? fuck that One of my biggest fears is large water-based areas like this, not like, lakes and rivers and such, but anywhere with large amounts of moving water or just large moving parts, I would probably pass out being inside that There is this one corkscrew water elevator near me where the corkscrews are only like, a meter in diameter and only a couple meters long, and as cool as I think it is, it scares the shit out of me being even near it

​@@crypticcreator4841You ever play Skate 3? There is this feeplay map where there is a huge tunnel going down then out that is long and pitch black mifway through. The Hoover Dam had this one huge intake i kept looking at thinking, "damn that would be a crazy pipe to spiral through before death"

Thank you @DaveGunderson.

There are many errors in that video, however It's quite low quality.

⁠@@ThomasKunderaI knew I wasn’t trippin, I can tell by how he was explaining things that he was leaving out important details.

In fact, there is. Here's the Google Streetview of it: www.google.com/maps/@36.016694,-114.738919,3a,15y,14.54h,88.85t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sAF1QipNtHdmJ9wqqIvP6PJ3ItgOch67zU_bJlkLYLpb-!2e10!3e11!7i11700!8i5850?entry=ttu

Yes there is a memorial at the Hoover Dam in honor of those workers who lost their lives building this beautiful dam.

🙏

This is wearing hard hats started.

Brave American ingenuity.

There are at least 15 or 20 as good or better like Animagrafs

@@BariumCobaltNitrog3n Except Lesics has been doing these for 10 years. Animagraffs for 4. Lesics was there for us early on YT with clear, intuitive, and detailed explanations that showed others this is what was desired. They should not be in financial trouble. Audiences shouldn't treat their artists like corporations treat workers.

@@enotdetcelfer I don't know how you came up with the corporations/workers analogy but there is no relationship or commitment and you want there to be one. You want the viewers to pay, but they don't. People watch what they like, that's it. No one is going to watch something out of pity or because they have been doing it for a long time. And what does "Lesics was there for us" mean?

Yeah and their names aren’t really known in history.

7 million subs and underrated 😅

@@cantthinkofnameyeah7249 Bruh currently it is underrated... See the viewership of this channel from the last year

From penstock to pen holder.

espically with the legion on the other side of the dam

😂😂😂

The Brotherhood of steel roams that area. You a mutant?

I sided with yes man

Same

All of them are reposts...

Found the engineer 😂

I appreciate your comment. Growing up in Vegas and having family here since the 1940s I've heard about the 6 Companies as being the conglomerate that built the dam and being responsible for the many worker deaths. Those are the two things always mentioned about 6 Companies. Your comment made me stop and think. The 6 Companies managed to build that amazing structure in that location with the technology of the time and with the extreme working environment and weather conditions. That is incredible. I can see how the processes that built the dam would be used to go to the moon.

@@hewhohasnoidentity4377 : Yes, I'm sure they would've had a much harder time had there been an OSHA around back then. The lives lost was tragic, and they should have been properly honored and their families compensated. I am pretty sure the planning group formed a predecessor to think tanks as well. There is a legend that they would find a problem and cast about deliberately for someone to come at it with a fresh perspective. In the case of the concrete, they foresaw problems with the chemical heat and so decided to bring in someone to come up with a view to scheduling and calculate some way to pour and save time, otherwise it would take decades to properly insure integrity of the layers. Someone suggested bringing in Baird Spalding, a research engineer who had worked with Steinmetz, who after looking at their problem suggested replacing the rebar with galvanized pipe through which ice water would be pumped. Special refrigerated pumping houses were then built and the cooling was reduced to about five to ten years rather than whatever they calculated. I tried to get details on the origin of this legend but never succeeded. It was an anecdote that Spalding's publisher told at Spading's wake.

saVree explains in way more detail, or Ohio energy professor, or engineer guy

that’s correct!

It does feel... Artificial. Its not amazing how a pulley works lol

Please look at that beautiful machine.

Gotta be, the story line bounces around more than a grown man with severe ADHD and a list of things to do.
