  • A Microwave gets far too much power, well over the normal 240 volt, the inevitable happens with disastrous effects on light bulbs.
    Special thanks goes to / ademusicuk for supplying some lamps and assisting. Special thanks to Polar for supplying an old microwave.

      Certainly it did handle it quite well, and with better cooling might even take more, however Photon could maybe have pushed much more into it if the transformers hadn't caught on fire. A different , more cappable power supply, instead of the built in transformer, is what I think would help to successfully put more power into the tube.

      @dumbo800 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you observe glassblowers, you'll see them take a small torch flame (usually very hot, though, like oxy-propane or another oxygen fortified flame) and heat a small area. Once a localized section is hotter than the rest, a small amount of pressure from the person on the end of the blowpipe will bulge a section out.
      This is just doing it all with the power of a microwave.

    If it possible to use the magnetron with a parabolic reflector, or a yagi, and then aim it at stuff?
    e.g., an invisible fly swatter?

      Yep, it's possible, china have recently come up with exactly that (after copying the US of course, but patent theft is legal in china), they say it's a riot control thing though (more people control to make sure they stop trying to push democracy in the communist state of china)...

      @@colenichols Sadly they are not really designed around generating square waves, thus it would likely fail to send data. Instead, they just generate a noisy sine wave in the 2.4GHz range, though it can vary a decent amount.
      The tech for the magnetron has not really changed since the 1950s since no one wants a new patent, and the current design works well enough.

    Viewer # 28,471. Oh wow..... It's time for Busta to energise the windings, there's a microwave to bust! :D
    I have to say that the smoke, sparks and flaaaaaames you got coming out of that were quite impressive! I bet that notched-up a few amps on the amp-meter!
    Another transformer in the microwave? Aaaaah, but Mr. Photon..... You forgot _"The Mega MOT"_ This microwave could have been ripped up to silly-stupid-kilowatts with _"The Mega MOT"_ stuffed in there on the power circuit. :D
    The way I would've rigged it, is.....
    A standard MOT on 240v and use the 'heater circuit' in it so as to get the heater in the magnetron working, then _"The Mega MOT"_ could have taken care of current-delivery duties by stuffing some serious kilowatts into the magnetron for the optimum poppage!
    Would that have worked? How would _"The Mega MOT"_ have coped on the output of Busta though?
    Do you reckon that _"The Mega MOT"_ would have handled a slight overvoltage for a few minutes?
    Another thing as well..... When that second transformer let loose in that microwave..... *_What the heck was that bottle-rocket screaming-off sound, and where was it coming from in there?!!_* ABSOLUTE LMAO!!
    Yes, I heard you laughing your backside off in the lounge as it let loose. That was a classic _I POPPED IT !!_ laugh right there! I have to say, I screamed out a loud laugh more-or-less at the same time! ROFL!!
    How on earth did the magnetron survive this? Or didn't it? I've still yet to work out where that bottle-rocket scream-off sound came from in there! :D Was it that high-voltage capacitor which is found in the majority of microwaves whistling-off because you overvolted and vented it?
    If you still have the microwave and the magnetron is still workable, could you do a re-take on this and use either _"The Mega MOT"_ in there or one of those gold transformers connected to the magnetron?
    Really, I think it's something that we'd all like to see..... _WAAAAY TOO MANY VOLTS_ stuffed into a magnetron! :D
    Let's see what shapes could be thrown in the microwave and what interesting scientific sounds could be gotten out of that magnetron!
    I think a lot of us would be mighty impressed if you could do to a microwave, what you did to that toaster and kettle!
    Imagine it now..... The world's first domestic 3kW microwave. I am sure that it'll be a TH-cam First!
    Go on, get in there.... RIP IT RIIIIIIIIIGHT UP and let's discover the Ssssatisfaction! I wanna see it Glowiiiiiiiiin' in there!
    Thanxx for showing,
    -BoomBoxDeluxe.

    The biggest problem is at high voltage the microwave not produced just microwaves, it will produce electromagnetic waves with higher frequency, so it would produce infrared waves which will obviously heat the surroundings.
