Two month project, including breaks, waiting for parts/3D printed parts, etc.
I put two microwave oven transformers into an ammo can, but I wanted to make it last as long as possible. It is connected in series. 2.1kV per leg is probably not ideal nor safe, but I went with it anyway. General rule of thumb is to never touch anything live/high voltage during operation. Three more cans to go (6 more MOTs) and I will hook them all in series-parallel (4.2kV still, I don't want to risk going higher) and try to draw some MASSIVE arcs.

Great project, great video. Thanks Trent! Sleeping with MOTs and barefoot in the lab... You're one in a million!😊
Haha ty
You're the next styrofoam pyroman.
Lol
+1 sub! Gotta admit your videos are great, especially your voice!
thanks man
his voice makes the video 10x better
lmao
U sound like that one guy from the big bang theory that makes fub of sheldon
Ballast it to 10A at 120V input and leave it for a few hours to see how hot it gets lol. I've always wanted to see a proper load test on an oil cooled MOT
Nah im not gonna be arcing with them for hours
@@breezetixhv not because you're going to be, but just to see how much power they can handle at 100% duty cycle
U need to but some capacitors in series with the output, u can get much bigger arcs
Already have and used MOCs
amazing video
Thanjs
Nice 👍👍👍, maybe use brass bolts instead of steel bolts for the terminals.
Don't brass break more easier? The terminals don't heat up a lot only like 40c max or something which is fine.
@@breezetixhv I guess you are right brass is softer so it breaks easier, but I like to use it anyway on my transformer projects 😁. I was also see that manufacturers like to use it too, I think also because of it superior corrosion resistance (I have some old transformers and all the steel bolts are rusted but the brass ones look still pretty nice)
@@Alexelectricalengineering gotcha, it depends if you do it jndoors or outdoors tho
@@breezetixhv Exactly, my old transformers before I get them was store probably inadequate. Brass has a low resistance, but it's not that big of a difference. I think only stainless steel would not be a good choice because it has a high resistance.
@@Alexelectricalengineering true. If I ever need to I can probably replace them eventuly
The fog of arc
What? 😂
@@breezetixhv 🤣🤣
@@TediChannel23Ja wdym tho
@@breezetixhv great channel 👍
@@TediChannel23Ja ty
Mots as well and microwave capasitors ,I could donate some stuff if u needed anything I'm not kidding I have enough to literally start a web site for electronic caponates haha which I might just do
Yeah I'd like that haha. You got Facebook or discord?
If u need caponates let me know I have everything u can think of most likely
Whats that 😂
Electronic caponates transformers capasitors diodes etc.and have a whole lot thought maybe u could use some for your projects
@@patrickedgarjr9186 do you mean components? Lol
@@patrickedgarjr9186 Hey do you have facebook or discord?
@@breezetixhv I have discord but haven't used it in a while tomorrow I will be in my shop I can take pictures of all stuff and if u want u can choose what ever u need,,I can give u my number but I don't think TH-cam will let me
I don't have any MOT😢😢
you can do the same with distribution wires, just throw a chain in the power lines and there you go, a nice hot arc :)
@@picanazo420 All rigth, lets do it
😅
@@Theelectronicguy32 They're really cheap, they're like 10$ or less...
naissssss
👍
Why is the oil your crazy? This only generates 4KV will not be in direct charge, in the microwave yes.
It's for cooling for the most part.
