How To Ignite Leaves With Glasses

Sorry, 200 of you have already viewed this video. Somehow, it was missing 1 minute of content that I wanted you to see. So, I took it down, fixed it, and reuploaded.
I needed some temporary reading glasses until I could get my 2nd cataract surgery done on Tuesday, both eyes heal up, and then have them make up a correct pair of glasses. So you know me, I’ll have to try them out for solar ignition. Let’s do something I’ve never done before. Let’s make them ignite dampish leaves straight off the ground.
I recommend using easier to ignite tinders for your first tries at this technique, charred materials or other coal extenders.

Hi David! A lifetime ago, my Scout troop had a camping weekend cut short by a certain young fella who was practicing solar ignition sans the requisite common sense. The sun must be respected. Liked the demo.

Safety first, yes!

Told my Dr I don’t want Cataracts I want Lincolns.
Wild to see the focused beam hitting the whiffs of smoke.

It really shows up, that cone shape from the diverging rays of light, in some of my other solar videos.

Good demonstration David, thanks for sharing, YAH bless !

[@sixgunfun78]

So cool. Man you have patience!

[@DavidWestBgood2ppl]

Fun TY!

I thank you again for the video. Good advice about taking care of your eyes. I'm about to be 71 and have cataracts that's almost ready to be whatever they do. Scary thought but.... God Bless. NW ga.

Thank You!

Hi David! Yes you're very right! The focus of that solar point is like a welding spark and very bad for the eyes! Have a merry christmas season! Jörg

[@DavidWestBgood2ppl]

Merry Christmas Jörg!

Thank you!

Thanks David. Another interesting video on making fire. Living in a city I do mot have anywhere as many leaves as you do. Need to head to the mountains.
What camera are you using?

[@DavidWestBgood2ppl]

All the best with your surgery, David. All my reading glasses are 1-2x, i’m guessing they won’t be powerful enough for this?

[@DavidWestBgood2ppl]

Actually, everybody makes that mistake. Power has nothing to do with how hot the focal point gets. Use the largest lens you have. It's the physical size... larger makes bigger hotter focal points.

[@robertdecrock4038]

What p power of the reading classes?

[@DavidWestBgood2ppl]

3x
