I am only amazed that I didn't stop this video after the first minute.
Video is worth only for the comment section.
OMG Sorry I just got a Flashback from my Prostate Examination. 🥒
@@KarimDeLakarim At least the doctor didn't use tinfoil.
It was only 3 minutes.
For those who don't do electrical, don't have tools or a soldering kit, but do have a job, the store is full of brand new light bulbs that need a new home. Please adopt.
😂😂😂
Adoption fee for those darn things is pricey.
I'm sick of buying these bulbs don't last five minutes go dim i have now gone back to normal bulbs, these are just cheap rip offs.
@@jacquelinestaples1639 Stop buying cheap junk. Since replacing every CFL/incandescent with a quality LED bulb, I haven't had to change a single bulb in quite some time.
Yeah, this looks like a fire hazard. It would take me at least an hour. I'll just grab a $15 bulb.
When I get a flat tire I remove the tire, melt it down, remold it and then reinstall it.
🤣🤣🤣
🤣😂🤣😂👍🏻💯

That sounds about right... Isn't that the way we are all supposed to do it?
Just imagine the look on your insurance agent's face after trying to claim fire damage from a "repaired led bulb".
I like down to earth comment like this. Sad but true they say. Yeah truth hurts. Keep it real !
People who think owning a screwdriver is all the qualification necessary to "fix" electronics by twisting components off a PCB with pliers generally don't carry insurance. What could go wrong?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mason Roberts, I was thinking the same thing...lmao.
Literally who even owns a plastic LED lightbulb like these anyways? 😂
Gives your house the glow of campfire
As it's burning to the ground. I don't recommend this fix.
I see what you did there 😂
Hahaha that’s funny
Turns your house into a bonfire. At least you can roast marshmallows as you wait for the fire department
@@johnstucker683 surprise I already bought the marshmallows, I’m planning on tying that tonight, should be a beautiful glow

I thought he was gonna put the foil around the bulb and was expecting the light to function differently with new colors or something. What a let down! Boring repair stuff.
@@Tenshi_ZA yeah misleading thumbnail. Clickbait. Dishonest person posted this video.
While I don't agree with using foil for this repair, bridging the circuit with solder is ok and helps reduce the amount of e-waste
Same
Give me my 3 minutes of my life back...
My wife thinks I'm in the bathroom at 4am watching porn. Instead I'm watching a man turn a light bulb into a USB light bulb on a stick.
😂
I was waiting for the end game of the video. When it turned out it was how to make a torch that needs to be plugged in and with a short cable, I wondered if this was actually just brilliant trolling
What is the opposite of being amazed? That's what I am after this video.
Totally irritated is more like it. Seems like a great way to end up in the ER 🤣
Uhmmm "less amazed" 🤔🤣
Disappointed!
Underwhelmed
Great tips for burning the house down! Thanks 🙏
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂classic..u win best comment in my book
@@williehutch9453 Thanks buddy. I am always amazed at these videos here
Wasn’t that a song? Burning down the house? Repairing his light with aluminum foil probably gave him the inspiration for the song.
Please don't follow stuff like this and mess with anything that plugs into mains if you don't know what your doing, but also electronics like LED's that run on lower voltages you could still cause a short wich can lead to issues, and im pretty sure putting foil or just solder in place of an LED isn't the best idea since that doesn't draw anything and has a different resistance. As for the usb part of this, yeah that seems fairly safe although you might still get shocked from the caps (maybe) and please don't plug that into a pc especially if there's a short somewhere. Just do your research if you wanna get into electronics and don't go messing with with mains unless you know what your doing.
Just borrow the wife's PC,no problem.
You might get away with jumping over ONE LED...but you are spreading out the voltage over the remaining LEDs. They are in series, and now there are less of them in the circuit, while the applied voltage remains the same. This also increases the current through the remaining LEDs...bringing on earlier failure. Idiots and electricity don't mix.

@@dgeoffc1 Your is spelled your, you're is spelled you're.
This needs to be the top comment
The thumbnail made me think you could make the bulb into a disco light

Absolutely! Risk a neighbors safety. Or even better. Risk it at work, while getting paid.
@@trutru9018 any case where's the aluminium foil
Explain how this could be risking your family's safety
It is closing a circuit with a low wattage. No lives are at risk from this.
He must really love that light bulb 😂
🤣
This isn't going to burn down anyone's house because nobody is going through this much trouble to save an inexpensive light bulb.
Thank you
Don't bet on it...
At least one person already has tried it, or there wouldn't be a video. As a retired Electronics tech, I have plenty of horror stories, thanks to people who had more ambition...than brains.
Oh y'all didn't follow along too? Awkward
Wait you guys got to keep your houses!? Wtf?
Very expensive led car headlights can be repaired the same way. Especially if you have something like a kia where the entire plastic assembly must be replaced.
And for those nervous Nellie's out there. A fire from this type of hack is virtually impossible as the fractionally increased load on the LED is internal to the bulb. Thus worst case another diode burns out early and the entire bulb stops functioning.
This trick does work fine, but the rest of the LEDs will now be running at a higher current and will die faster. Ideally you need to replace the LED but in this case it will be better to buy a new bulb.
Yes you are right, maybe if you have 1 or 2 dead bulbs you can solder good led from the others. Also these bulbs also are suffering from extreme heat there and if you remove the light diffuser and drill few holes where the little transformer is you can extend the life of these bulbs. They are intentionally made to die fast so we can buy them more, I don't know what happened with 5 years warranty I swear my bulbs die for less then a year :D.
Soldering a resistor on in its place would work as well.
Usually they are current regulated. It shouldn't be an issue. Unless you have a cheap Chinese with just the capacitor in series in it.
And running hotter and hot electronics tent to CATCH FIRE!!!
Since the LEDs are in series, the current will be the same. On the other hand replacing the diode with a conductor reduces resistance, which would allow for more current. Interesting.
Electrocuting myself while turning down the water heater was a life lesson I’ll never forget.
Yes please do this if you enjoy the ambience of a raging inferno in your home. Toasty!

Wow amazing, a flameless candle! What next? A horseless carriage?
He should fill the plastic cover with explosive and leave that tape off the tin foil so the spark is able to make contact.
Then set Alexa that the circuit is the Christmas lights.

But do 50 other things before “just putting aluminum foil on lightbulb”, like taking a wire out and stripping it and use a C-clamp then turn around 3 times and do a jumping Jack then plug it in and in a few hours your house will burn down.
Still waiting for the amazing part
I think I messed the steps up, because after going through the entire process I ended up with...A LIGHTSABER!!! Thanks for helping me make a murder weapon to strike down my enemies and conquer the galaxy! YAY! ☺️
Lol. Love it.
Did you slice off your own arm with that thing?
Ohhh a light saber, that would come in handy if we get the zombie virus to stick it in a zombie’s brain
This reminds me of wrapping car fuses in silver foil when you run out of replacements
That was the excuse for having a Kit Kat in the car 😋
Wasn't the a tv show...(perhaps Fury!) where somebody used a coin as a fuse replacement and the whole house burned down and they had to buy a whole brand new service panel!, too?
Amateur. You're supposed to replace it with a .22 bullet.
I've seen fuseboxes in the junkyard with screws in place of fuses
Yes, very dangerous!
How about replacing it with another led from damaged bulb
How many times should I watch this before being amazed???
OR you can just go down to the gawddamned 99 Cent Store and buy another bulb. 🤦🏾♀️
As well as what the others are saying about safety and ease of buying, this totally reminds me of my brothers fooling around with old electrical, circuits, and even old tubes!
Best saved for bored rainy days for middle & high schoolers. 😄
@Sherri - Yes! With parental supervision!
So what does it do
Alex, can I have "when you're too cheap to buy a new light bulb" for $200.

As soon as I saw side cutters being used to strip wire I knew this was a hackjob and probably unsafe... Yup.
I thought the exact same thing.
Good "Grow" bulbs have 150+ LEDs, cost $20-40 each and this technique could be useful for saving them

Please contact The Samaritans first before you commit suicide.
We used to do this with old tvs. The ones with the big boxes behind the screen. If the TV died, first thing was to find the fuse inside. You could replace the fuse, smart idea... but if your really smart, you just wrap foil around the dead fuse and bridge the gap. If my memory serves me right, eventually the foil burns out and stops working. Yay
Thank goodness there’s fast forward.
Well music is great 👍 👌
Why and what .. what is the gain? I dont see any benefit ? Just firehazard
Or just buy a new one
Just a giant flex of electrical knowledge and skillful application.

Makes me think about when they had screw in fuses and people used to replace the fuse with a penny .
Talk about some big fires.
😄
To think I just spent over 3 minutes of my night watching that
Penny under a burnt out fuse !?!
LMAO old school
I did a similar thing on an electric welder. It had a circle of diodes with one burned out, these were very difficult to get replacements for do I just jumpered the faulty one and the welder runs on the other eight. It has worked fine for years even though each of the other diodes handles a tiny fraction more load.
Much easier to go buy a new welder
@@eisbeinGermany I wouldn't of thought so...
I like wireless flashlights
Don't do it at HOME 😱
Right! Do it at a park, neighbors house, any government building....
Question? Does this "fix" change the full light spectrum? Does it make the bulb hotter?
It's for temporary
Yes, that’s why they use fuses and breakers. I’m sorry about your misfortune. But I do understand the frustration.
@@jackdurden466 Well ,I heard of a guy who cried because a fire burnt down HIS house, until he found 89 solid gold ingots buried beneath. "All that G-d Does is Good"
This might be different, LEDs don't generally generate much heat and use way less energy. It does depend on the bulb but for these ones are mostly warm to the touch when they run all day and typically run from 5-10watts but generate light as your traditional 60watt house bulb. It doesn't change the spectrum of the lights at all, it looks like it is just completing the circuit so the bulb works when you think it burns out. Only one of the LEDs fails which makes the entire circuit fail or flicker. So all you're doing is completing the circuit at least from what it looks like in the video. I have two LED bulbs that died on me, I will try this and see if it works.
Cheap LED's bulbs have started car fires, anything can happen. UL listed lights go threw various testing to prevent fire's.
The old round glass fuses that blew in a car were rigged with a foil gum wrapper to complete the circuit.
The appreciation of science 🥰
Thank you for sharing!
Does anyone even notice that this LED lightbulb 💡 is made of plastic? Now tell me that isn’t a fire hazard in its own! Blows my mind!
Love it but although I have a toolbox I wouldn't risk it!!!
Well that was short
Love how this video was linked in the advertisements on a news mobile page.
Amazing
No!! Don't don't do this. Basically one of the LEDs has failed (probably from getting too hot or being overdriven). Firstly, using a piece of cable may work but is likely unsafe as often these are driven at full mains voltage (if you touch the connection or short it, you could get a shock). Next, if you HAVE determined a faulty led and taken it out of circuit, do it with solder and a link. Taping a piece of aluminium foil over is likely to cause arcing if it is being run at mains voltage as the tape heats up and doesn't make a good connection. Finally, if they are sharing the current, by taking one out of circuit, you end up overruling the remaining ones which will then fail quickly. If you are lucky, you won't cause a fire or get a shock.
The vast majority of white LEDs are driven at about 3V, and that is through a power supply. I have never seen mains voltage LEDs in consumer lamps.
None of the LEDs in this video are using mains voltage though...

I think I want my three minutes and change back
@Wesley Hughes they often use a cheap capacitive dropper then put the LEDs in series to stop the inrush current. Basically each one runs at 3v but they share the 220/110 v at each point.
This is dangerous and uneccessary. Teaching oeole to do this has great potential to cause a fire
Three minutes of my life I'll never get back.
Screws it in a 1\4 turn saying it's dead. Probably never even made contact. It's probably fine
1. Other LEDs will start failing because you bypassed failed one(s).
2. If you were going to make an informative video you would test each LED and replace defective one(s)
I am all for repairing rather than replacing, it's better for the environment. There is, however a right and a wrong way to do it.
Is it safe though
No.
Yes, 100% safe... C'mon... Wtf do you think?!
@@shutitfukface said: "Yes, 100% safe... C'mon... "
Name checks out!
I rather adopt a bulb. Thanks!
Natural selection.
Wouldn't it be safer, and easier to open your wallet and buy a new bulb? Unless you love the feeling of getting electrocuted
Also is easier and more convenient to buy a flashlight.
Getting electrocuted isn’t really a concern as the housing is plastic and the LED runs on DC voltage. The real concern is possibly causing an issue with it being a fire hazard.
It's also why people won't be able to ever repair anything in the future because they never learned how to. But when money runs out due to an unstable economy you will wish this guy was around to fix your stuff lol
@@StevenThompsonXREI shut your shutting up
@@relicgamer2137 but he didn't fix anything! he took a perfectly working light bulb and made a slightly more dangerous light bulb.
As an electronic major.... Please don't do this EVER! get another bulb, being cheap is usually pretty dangerous when dealing with the electricity in your home🤷♂️
Even with solder?
@@coronnation8854 the LED was burnt out from being overloaded or being too hot in general. I wouldn't use a jumper cable to fix that when you can legit spend $2 on a new bulb versus $500,000+ on a house

@@willielarimer7170 exactly! There are times where you have to bite the bullet and just get a new one.
@matt casey I wouldn't be surprised if one of my friends tried this, back in the 90s he wondered what would happen if he stuck a 9 volt battery to his braces, I'm surprised he survived his childhood🙄
Those who would fix a LED bulb would have a soldering kit.
Cool...but I won't be trying this!😬😂
You should probably place a warning word in place of the word Amazed …. like terrified, aghast. I followed the steps in this video exactly as shown. I can’t remember everything that transpired but it looks like i have a halo or a visible aura when looking at my reflection, I can’t remember if the light ever turned on but the blisters on my hand and burn hole in the carpet have me convinced it must have.
Lol 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Well.. That looks safe!.
Recommended first step: Learn Ohm's 4 laws
sooo... basically you took a lightbulb apart, and after what looks like a few hours of hard work, and many an electrical hazard, you finally got yourself a lightbulb. You must be a genius
If that would take you a few hours and you consider that hard work xml should just hang it up now ......literally. i'll supply the rope.
All of the videos on this channel can be summed up as. "How to do something illogically and possibly dangerously."
Pretty sad if checking continuity on a couple dozen connections, pulling lightly with pliers, and melting a single drop of solder takes you more than a few minutes, or constitutes "hard work"
@@octorokpie yea whatever
This should be taken down, someone's gonna end up dead trying this or even worse when it burns the house down :(
Use do this in the 70s 80s with Christmas lights thats why there was many fires 🔥
I love you Led Light.💡💡💫🤩🤩🤩👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
The test wire shows the LED that has failed. The wire is conducting the 1.5 volts across the burnt out LED, by the lighting up the working LEDS. And the foil tape is replacing the failed LED. Soldering is best and safest. Plus the lose of one LED gives an extra 1.5 volts to the other LEDS, making the lamp brighter.
Well, that was way less impressive than what I was expecting.
PSA: If you tried any of these and something happened, say a fire in your home, your home insurance wouldn't cover it. This is very dangerous for the average person to be messing with. I don't recommend it.
I wonder if you could sue the maker of this idiotic video? And TH-cam.
