2:29 definitely puts into perspective just how slow a 5400 RPM hard drive actually is after coming so close by 109 RPM to nearly 10x faster with a blender motor 😂😂😂
what burns the motor? It's not voltage that actually burns the motor but the current in amperes. (Load) Motors can burn out due to excessive current, not directly due to high voltage. However, if you increase the voltage too much, the motor may draw more current than it’s designed for, which can cause overheating and eventually burn out the motor.
The blender motor you showed at 1:12 is clamped in a metal vise! This would short out the laminated plates causing excessive losses in eddy currents. Also, the solid metal vise on either side would generate eddy currents reducing the magnetic field strength. "Trap for young players" - Dave Jones :)
These tachometer strips really don't seem to like the centrifugal stresses of 60,000+ RPM. That must be why the strips on the vacuum mortor kept flying off at around fifty-ish thousand.
I'd love to see you do these in an inert atmosphere, maybe could kill them with overspeed instead?. IT seems the main issue is the brushes breaking down and causing arcs to reach the other brush, which then eats the copper away.
Love to see you overvolting AC motors finally! That electrolux motor sure put up a fight. What power supply are you using? I'd also love to see you overvolt some induction motors. Amazing work! Keep it up!
I'm using a 3-phase outlet with variable transformers. Yeah I've been thinking about induction motors for a while, but that would rather be a "overhertzing" project. I'm looking into building a custom variable frequency drive
Ahh. The sweet, delicious smell of brushes among other components burning. I swear that one motor was spinning fast enough to open a portal to another dimension. Also, think about how much air that vacuum cleaner motor was moving around.
8:22 this might not be caused by the high voltage, I thing it’s caused because the motor got jammed or stuck in some way, it did something called a burnout. I know this from smashthings1 videos
@@TorontoPopulistConservative not all the time. Vacuum tubes are electronics too. Although I guess in a way a vacuum tube is also a semiconductor of sorts? It just isn't solid state.
About that sander: i bought a super cheap "rotary tool" that must have used those same bearings. A little bit of heat and catastrophic failure ensued. Lesson learned.
i think there are two problems : Over Heating , When Voltage increases too much it can jump from its path and can cause short circuit (Just like Tesla Coil)
Electrolux motor reminds me of the matter disc generators or whatever they are that the astr toilets use from skibidi toilet. The green lights warping around the metal cylinder is similliar to the warp drive in the astro toilets disc.
Could you do another test where you drop just below where they seem to start to fail and then see how long they can sustain the extremely high voltage?
They may have some kind of an autotransformer. They can output more than what's input. Usually not a whole lot more though. An autotransformer will typically output 130V with a 120V input.
Induction motors are phase locked so increasing the voltage doesn't make them go faster. Lowering the voltage can burn them out though. At least it can make them get very hot.
Once it hit 6,000 RPM the bearing went "Nope, I'm out!" just like the vacuum cleaner motor did when it flew away and then the bearing exploded, causing a catastrophic failure when the stator attempted to suck it in and got clogged. 😂
Well, I learned two important lessons today.
1: blender motors have VTEC, kicks in about 38000RPM
2: bearings are unnecessary extra weight

That electrolux motor is legendary. Survived 500v ac and survived up to 600v dc.
and refuse to die.
That Electrolux motor would probably still run with new brushes. Goes to show how tough those old motors are.
I suspect that fan was providing good airflow through the motor - the way it's set up, it looks like it could draw air through the inside of the stator even without any housing to act as a shroud.
the last motor accually vibrates so hard even the tachometer doesnt say correctly.
Thats because tachometers read at fixed points so the motor vibrated off the section it was reading, making it essentially read nothing.
Whoever designed that electrolux motor can be very proud of themself. That thing just didn't want to die!
Electrolux made a lot of commercial grade vacuums, used in hotels, etc. They're built pretty tough and last decades.
A most impressive showing.

So basically the voltage becomes so high the brushes arc at each other or the commutator plates melt causing a direct short circuit.

i really wanna see you do this but with induction motors instead of universal motors, since those burn up in kinda diffrent ways.
Induction motors are phase locked so increasing the voltage doesn't make them go faster. Lowering the voltage can burn them out though. At least it can make them get very hot.
@@1pcfred you could increase the frequency and they would speed up.
@@TheOfficialDorianelevator that's what being phase locked means.
@@1pcfred i know, i just said the frequency needs to be changed for it to speed/slow down, this is basically what a VFD does.
