I like how he just goes into a store with his equipment and just starts testing stuff
Hahahaha I can't stop laughting, "let's try theses in the middle of the store"
When getting a car battery, I also go over the pallet with a multimeter, to find the one with lowest self discharge: Highest voltage!
Thats pretty baller tho

a lot of electricians do that, i've seen it regularly, I've seen multiple people probe electronic stuff in stores.

Thanks Mehdi, but I think I'll just use candles.
Have you tried using a generator?
Watching the TV in candle light when the power is out is really romantic, eh?
petti78 possible since, most Sony tv take in 12 v DC... direct connection to battery
That, and waiting... reading books in candle light never feels bad.
I used to do that very often, the day before exams... When I left school, we bought a generator... Lol

Ty for the part where you showed the electricity was "out of phase".
In my old job, there was stuff with generators and stories of people destroying equipment and endangering themselves because they tried to bring a large generator online when power from the power company was still coming in on the circuit.
Nice to see a visual representation of that.

yup,thats me
If it were an actual outage situation and you plug an UPS into the wall, you would potentially be energizing the electric lines outside and jeopardizing the safety of the linemen working on the lines. I’m sure the electric utility has a separate disconnect for ElectroBOOM’s house that gets opened first.
or just open the breaker
Opening the main breaker can fix this and I'm sure ElectroBOOM opened it.
Make sure you have an interlock switch
The city has a separate line dedicated for his house probably by now with nuke protection.
Aww those poor linemen.... BOLLOCKS! they know what they're doing. Many houses have solar panels etc.

@@ostrich4846 stimmt
1:55 actually its far simpler to just stick a full bridge rectifier in there and remove the polarity from the unit entirely then no matter how you hook it up it will just work
That's 2 diode drops of 1.4V total... So in the example where he is drawing 20 amps from the battery, 28 watts of power (1.4V * 20A) would be wasted. ElectroBoom's MOSFet circuit would only drop around 0.1V for around 2 watts (0.1V * 20A) of wasted power in the protection circuit. It's probably why the manufacturers use the fuse & diode method. Since you need the fuse anyway, adding the fuse blowing diode wastes ZERO power. They just need a better diode that doesn't fail before the fuse blows.
Much more inefficient though
I live in New Delhi. Growing up, AC inverter as a back up were very common, in our houses, till few years ago because of frequent power cuts.

I don't even know how to begin explaining the level of entertainment I experienced watching a few of your videos! I should/could be learning something but I am too busy laughing and being in awe
Did this guy just risk his own car battery for the sake of our enjoyment?
btw for anyone in a similar situation: My car just ran out too recently. I realize that when the battery is a bit low, but it still makes a "sound" when you try start the car, you have a better chance of making it start if you press the accelerator as you twist the keys. I guess this makes the air less restricted into the engine or something. And then you have an excuse to speed a little to recharge the battery a bit faster
Car alternators are usually built very cheaply and not designed to recharge a battery from zero (or outputting the maximum current for a few hours continuously). When the engine is at about 1000-1500 RPM usually the excitation current is not regulated when the battery is flat and the alternator outputs less than its maximum current, however if you rev the engine above 1500RPM the speed will be enough that the alternator is fully excited and outputs maximum current, which will make the diodes overheat and possibly fail.
Ah thanks. Good info is always welcomed. Never had it happen yet tho. Im a really safe driver. "Fast" to me usually means 80-100kmph
It's not about speed of the car, it's about the alternator's speed. You could do 160 km/h and have the engine at 1500 RPM and it would be fine.
Note that this only applies when the battery has been flattened and the car jump-started. After it's charged again, you can do 5000RPM and it won't hurt the alternator.
Ohhh... I see. You mean like the alternator is applied to a vaguely charged battery, so like negligible resistance, similar to applying a ~0 ohm copper wire across a battery?
Yeah I get the phenomenon youre describing now
Electroboom: Lets very *CAREFULLY* plug it in.
Also electroboom: *YHAAAAOUUCH*

One tip for if you want to do this is to turn off the inverter before you plug any double male extension cord into it. Then make sure the room breaker is off (and the main) as well. Plug the cord in any direction you like, then switch the inverter back on LAST. This way you don’t risk electrocuting yourself or burning your hands. You might still burn other things, though if you are not careful about making sure your set up is correctly connected. Also switch off the inverter before unplugging the cord.

"just short the plug in question and the correct breaker opens"
when i worked as an electrician we used to do that all the time
we called it remote set off
Same. We'd have a set of wires hooked onto a switch on one side and then the 2 loose wires to put into the outlet. Have the switch off, put the wires in, then turn it on. Completely avoids the explosion that scares homeowners
@@Sublimnalxx i use a soket whit a swhich, i caled the remote tester
Bad idea!!! Doing this can reduce the life (or damage) of the breaker. It also creates arching damage in the receptical, etc.
There are __inumerable__ (free & paid) ways of locating a breaker for an outlet. Ways that are so simple _&_ much safer! For example, connect a loud audio source to the outlet. It should go without saying:
The volume of the source audio should be loud enough to hear at the service panel. When you flip the corresponding breaker the sound stops.

While working someone wanted to buy a generator and I let them know about this fun little hack. However he wanted to power his entire apartment with it, and these generators have outlets you can use directly. No need hot wiring your house through a single outlet to get power back on, that's a whole lot of power in one plug.
Lately there has been a few power outages where I live since it is summer in australia the wires can easily melt and shit so I needed the power tips. Plus this taught me how to make my own back up power battery. I even got a PC fan to cool it on hot days

0:45 history
It is worth mentioning some appliances require pure sine wave to work correctly, otherwise they could work less effective, not start at all, or in worst case heat up beyond their limits and set you on fire
LIke ceiling fans that make noise and heat up when on a square wave inverter
Why not use a FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIER for polarity protection
Due to the power loss on the diodes. If you are drawing 50A and your diodes have a voltage drop of 0.7V (like the vast majority of diodes) you will be wasting about 35W in every diode of the bridge. And if you are running from a battery that would be really inefficient
xD better losing power than losing the entire inductor
Limeoo But you can use the circuit that Mehdi showed on the video. It's not complex at all, much more efficient and it gives you the reverse polarity protection
Yup he could just use a FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIER
