Inside a hazer phaser.

- This is a weird thing. I'm not fully sure of its original intended use, but it's one of many products that has had a new pandemic related purpose invented for it.
In this case it's being presented as a disinfecting fogger, although its use of a heated atomiser might compromise its suitability for that.
The listing also suggests it can be used to spray paint, but it really can't. It would clog up instantly if you tried to do that.
The build quality isn't bad, and the unusual heater block and pump assembly are worth the price alone for their component value.
My comment about the unit resembling some theatre haze machines is due to some of the glycerol hazers having a heated atomisation path that can be opened and cleaned. It's unusual to see such a complicated and serviceable atomiser block in a cheap product like this.

Technology connections gave Clive a mention on latest vid, both are brilliant communicators
And Clive posted a comment on that video - saying he like the first way Alec wired it :)
I still want both of these guys to do a collab where they just go out and look at Christmas lights.
Haha, you heard that too? Love both of channels so much.
That's why I'm here
@@Inignot12 You need to get up to speed then on BC. Here's my 3 suggestions:

That type is designed to remove wrinkles from clothing. You put your shirt/blouse on a hanger and mist it with the handheld steamer.
I've always loved my non-heater hazers (mineral oil) for my lighting effects! The haze stays in the air for hours and creates amazing beams. Took one apart once and found a very impressively made venturi nozzle assembly that it relied on. Interesting stuff!
You need to add a laser to it so it becomes a laser hazer phaser!
definitely.
Put a nice jacket on it and it's a blazer wearing laser hazer phaser!

You can haze your heath with it
Why not add a tazer?
Maybe the references to paint are a translation that missed the point. I think it just means you can use the machine to clean/disinfect surfaces that are painted, like walls. It's saying you can use it to spray painted things, not that it sprays (applies) paint.
Or they're using the same shell for paint spray guns and copied the wrong description.
I took it the way you did, Steve.
Interestingly I thought neither of those things, and thought it might be intended for stripping paint.
I think it's just a translation error. I think it means "to paint" like to apply a liquid to a surface.
There's 'paint' and there's 'paint'. I was thinking of thinned paint. Cellulose ????? or water based !
The closest I've seen in hair salons is them using the atomizers like the one you used that one time when you was misting a PCB with water before etching it.
I won't be the first to say it, but this is TH-cam so I'm compelled to speak...
The hissing at the beginning wasn't extremely loud and I could hear you quite clearly over the noise.
That is all.
Agreed. I had to increase the volume of my speakers up to hear it better. I was disappointed he didn't turn it up from the low setting.
I assume the automatic gain-control on the microphone made the sound less harsh on the video than it was in real life? But, yeah, I had the same issue -- I turned it way down and then had to turn it back up to hear him speak...
Rebrand it as an Extreme Vape Rig and sell it for $900.
Replace the LEDs with RGB switching ones, rebrand it as a computer accessory, and sell it for $9000.
That's essentially what the commercial ones are you can do some really cool things with one.
Guy with beard: “This is the low setting…“
Me: ...but ...wha ...hang on - who the hell are you and what the hell have you done with Clive?!😡
Guy with beard: “Then will take it to bits and see if we can modify it...”
Me: “Ah-ha! There you are, Clive!”
@Jean-Louis Bourgeois The earth is not an oblate spheroid either, but it is more correct to say that the earth is an oblate spheroid than it is to say that the earth is a sphere, just like it's more correct to say that the earth is a sphere than it is to say that the earth is flat/planar.

I don’t think I have ever heard someone make a 5th element reference before but I enjoyed it
You get what you get when you bring somebody an empty box
Sees a mumble jumble of cables "oooh that's neat" made me chuckle not gonna lie.

There's enough haze in the air here in Oregon to last 10 lifetimes. I've been breathing smoke 24/7 for the past 10 days. No need for more haze!!
This might Actually Dissolve the Smoke
@@bansheemania1692 like, make it rain?
Well at least you have a real reason to wear a mask now
as opposed to deadly viruses
I have been working with RTV off and on for over 25 years and Big Clive states twice "RTV a room temperature vulcanizing silicone"
And it hits me, I never even knew what it stood for! 🤣
Awesome video as always.
Absolutely brilliant.
@9:20 - "It came from Tandy 'decades' ago..." (while holding a decade resistor box) We see what you did there, you brilliant bastard!
It's actually 8:20 and it's NOT a decade resistor box!

Uses I can think of for that device: Garment steamer and wall paper remover.
at 1.2KW its gonna remove 1.2 sqr inches per minute of wall paper ;)
Vape god
I expect that the Judoon will be using one of these to subdue the Doctor in the Xmas (not so) special.
I believe it would be used to steam paint for removal .
Those instructions are particularly good
Very nice heater block wow
Hey, I unlocked that pistol in Mass Effect 3.
You'll never unlock deez nutz or my dig bick
It took me seven years to finally get around to finishing Mass Effect 2. I still haven't started on the third one.
@@jjhack3r you boyfriend have you in permanent chastity? LOL
Re-assembly! Quite an honour, that.
So, if the heater block is so interesting, and the gun format casing is already conveniently in hand, can we expect this same device to appear in a later hot-rod-mod video? A man's reach…
Re-assembly? Taking a page from AvE's playbook.
Did I hear you say glycerol? I wonder how many people might try to mod this item into a monster vaping machine?
I use this for valeting, you put some fog-it in it and it gets rid of the smell of dog. But if you run it for more than 10 mins the power cable starts melting, You didn't pick up on that hazard. Great videos Clive I like watching you take things apart it's great.
I wonder if you have a version rated for a different voltage.
@@BigClive its 240v the black cable sleeve shrinks, exposing the blue and brown cable, near the handle, I'm on my 3rd 1.
7:33 best moment of 2020
air is filled with steam
dangling cables everywhere
a dodgy resistor subtitution box in one hand
**"keep it mind it's all live in mains voltage"** in a casual, educational manner.
Fill it with isopropanol and make it a flamethrower :)
That seems like a verry good Idea. Wanna see it!
isopropanol is expensive at the min (or last i looked due to it being the main ingredient in sanitizer) why not just use traditional flame thrower fuel petrol?
another great idea.
Keep half expecting it to go bang with a plume of smoke. Fascinating stuff never the less.
big clive slonking on big 1200w vapes
looks like i found my new mod. Thanks for the review, but you failed to mention its a pod system and what the capacity of the vape pod is
The vape pod is the bottle and holds about 300ml.
20mg nana cream in there. 😤😤💪💪😤
Devices like this make for a fun journey exploring too.
Thanks, Clive!
The high temp cut off is at 190c? That is rather warm.
You are without a doubt my favorite 'lets tear this apart and see the guts of it' TH-camr Clive! Superbly intelligent and like an inquisitive ferret .... ;) be safe and thank you for the time and attention it takes to produce these videos sir!
Wow that thing looked pretty quality inside, would say a steal for the money.
"Im gonna be careful with this" *proceedes poking asbestos with bare fingers*
It's only dangerous if broken / damaged
I believe the listing is talking about cleaning paint, not dispensing it. Cool toy thx for taking it to bits.
"i swear it was a tik-tok" having not ever seen your face before, but having watched a couple dozen of your videos... i was completely thrown by your rugged demeanor.. i had a completely different vision in my head of what you might look like..
another one i am always curious about, is the 'lock picking lawyer' :)
Keep up the excelent work, always love watching your videos.. :)
What's the Tik-Tok reference?
Dónal O'Flynn cause on tik tok people lip sync to other people’s videos.
Mechanical Triage Oh, so you thought it was Clive’s voice but somebody else in vision? 🤣
hair ?
dang... my bet was on the futuristic BeeKeepers...
I remember an electrician re-wiring a motorcycle in red. Just red wire. It worked but try being the next guy down the line.
I bought an old Ford Escort with a dashboard wired like that. I was cursing the bastard who did it!
One (1) swipe of a black Sharpie at each end of a run, near the termination, and it's all good. But nooooo!
Lucas jaguar wiring, and probably Rover ,dark wires
Can you please do a video on how an electrostatic sprayer works.
2:38 -- that's some serious Engrish right there. LOL!
I like having the separate thermostats for the heater and the pump- I wish the cheaper smoke machines had a similar setup to allow them to produce smoke at any time rather than cutting out to reheat.
Wow, I didn't know RTV was an acronym for Room Temperature Vulcanizing, this channel really is educational sometimes
The little =3 smilies you write on your doodles are really cute clive
Watching Clive take apart this surprisingly decent hazer was surprisingly entertaining! More people need to discover these videos
In areas where grid power to homes is limited in Indochina, these are sold as 'mist sprays' which reduce the feel of very hot climates and where air-conditioners would destroy the house wiring because of the power required.
Misting sprays, operated from / by water pressure are commonly used in outside dining /drinking venues where air-conditioning is impractible.
I'm just waiting for "big clive's guide on prostate exams"

@@TagCavello Hmm, I might need to use unreasonable force.
One moment, please....
Just one of his many talents!
My brain read "prostate exams" in his voice.
@@Beany2007FTW Once he brings out the spudger, I might decide to stop watching.
I bought a Resistor substitution box from Altronics in Australia. But a search on ebay showed them available from the USA, Spain and China.
You should send that fiber wrap to a lab for analysis to see if indeed it's asbestos. If it is, the seller may be violating the law.
Awe yes. The "final solution" mosquito bong. Thanks for the coverage, Clive.
Ahhh! You've destroyed my illusion, I imagined Bill Patterson, oh well, love your videos, your voice is both calming and reassuring
Got one after seeing that. Its great. Also works with water-based scents for smelly teenager rooms! Managed to get it for £24. Good for disinfecting cars too.
The fibre glass braiding is to reduce expanding of the hose, this could happen because the valve is next to the pump.
The expanding of steam is adding pressure on the hose
With the help of one small transistor radio and that Hazer Phaser you can start a modern day's disco which has not more then 5 people and the DJ present. I think 30 seconds per person is enough.
6:28... well, they insulated it asbestos they could :P
This looks like a very nice cheap kit to make your own hazer. I really love the heating block, very "serviceable".
Your volume warnings are greatly appreciated.
Very surprising! I will be getting one of these for sure!
Disassembly product is nice info 👍
Thank you for the perfectly timed upload. :)
Now all I’d need is a way to run this from a battery pack, and I’d use this for my Halloween costume!
If you put a couple of small squares of fine wire mesh in that heater you would reduce the spitting. Cool video, thank you for your efforts.
I think I've seen that LED circuit before, a small lamp (with a magnet at the back) running off 3 AAA batteries with a push button switch in the middle (press the lens).
No diode and different resistors (obviously). Inefficient, but a sensible bit of repurposing.
Neat. I wonder if I could use something like this to make a smoke machine for RC planes.
Skywriting ! Not the dot-matrix stuff they do now. Go Grumpy !
Steaming hail in a salon possibly...
Steaming clothes while on a trip is another use for it...It's compact enough to easily fit in your suitcase...
It could also be used as a Steam Cleaner/Disinfectant for countertops, sinks, appliances etc. that is easier to use than the traditional Steam Cleaners/mops (less bulky)...
Note: you don't really need to put anything other than water in this to sterilize. Water heated to the point it becomes steam will kill most viruses, bacteria and parasites in a second or two after exposure so just slowly sweep the nozzle across the surface to be sterilized (at a distance of 2-4 inches between nozzle and surface) and you should be good to go...
Hmmm..must get one of these....my cat will thank you as every time I use my fog machine for my laser harp the cat goes into orbit....
You should open up a Vape box mod. Would be interested to what's inside
Nice to see Clive actually bothers to ensure things are unplugged first. Air conditioner installers just left my place and I'm 95% sure they did all their work with the wrong circuit turned off. One even tripped a breaker by snipping a live cable then came into the house to turn it back on before proceeding. I just had to tell someone.
They often have to work with the power on to trace the faults.
@@BigClive That's a good insight. I do prefer to give people the benefit of the doubt but these two weren't filling me with confidence in a number of other ways.
Finally something that gets the stains out of my shirt and chases away the neighbours as well as wasps out of the garage and fixes my bed hair problem 😂
That would be a good one for a slow motion camera and a pirex glass window for some fogging action
Dam wait till the kids in the school bathroom get ahold of this 😂
Good video @BigCliveDotCom
This looks like it would be the perfect Sci-Fi weapon in a school play, especially if you can get the battery powered one or hide the cord enough. If you boosted the light of the LEDs it would look like a blue cone ray, you could even use it as a UFO abduction beam! the potential is endless!!!
SHOW EVERYONE HOW TO FIX THE LEDS TO MAKE THEM BRIGHTER SO TEACHERS CAN FIX THEM AND USE THEM IN PLAYS!!
I think its meant for cleaning painted walls not actually painting the walls
It's a vaping machine for crowds of smokers! 😂
awesome- I was surprised cause it seemed fairly well built
It's pretty good construction.
7:28 Alternate title "WOW! Convert your semi-auto phaser to full-auto in these fast & easy steps!"
This would be pretty good to maintain room hunidity in some plant or mushroom tent setups.
Clive, your voice/accent is strangely soothing. 😀
Not the slightest idea what I am going to do with it, but I ordered one today!
its used to test point to point smoke alarms ( the sort that shine a beam across an open space to a receiver)
would you recommend it (unmodified)?
Would you recommend it for it as a hazer (like with haze fluid)?
It could be used to haze the air for effect. But only with glycol based haze or fog fluid.
How do you manage to find all the best of the Chinese instructions! XD
It's not for spraying paint. What the website said (from what I can tell) is it's safe to use around paint. i.e it won't damage your house's paint if you use it indoors.
The glee, with which Clive realizes he can examine the inner workings of these specimens.
That would be brilliant as a pest control fogging machine for treating loft spaces etc. Hmm... ponders.......
I don't know why but hazer phaser just sounds so funny to me.
Same
I got a headache listening to the instructions.
Some anions are in order then! :P
Just imagine those instructions being read by Gilbert Gottfried rather than Clive....
Bought on my 42nd bday, clive you shouldn't have, oh you didn't. 😏
Hey, that thingy would make a great smoke generator for smoke testing intake manifolds
Was the reference to paint suggesting it is safe to use on painted surfaces ???
I would say that it is safe to use on any surface as it does precisely eff all.
Maybe they mean it can be used for stripping paint with the hot steam.
We used to use a much bigger non portable steamer unit for steaming wrinkles out of clothes. Wonder if that hand-held gun looking steamer would work well for steaming clothes, although it would be better with a flat surface where the steam comes out
Would definitely be useful for those of us in the laser and optics community. The laser hobby is a lot of fun but sometimes it’s really important to see the actual beam path of laser (especially if it’s capable of burning your skin… And an invisible wavelength)! Sure beats the hell out of a Vape
A small disco fog machine might be better for that as it's harder to knock over.
Could this be used to spray biological samples? As in, if someone doesn't change the water, are they just spraying legionaries disease?
I'm aware it heats the solution when it is in a very exposes small particle form.
But only for a very short duration.
it could still class as pasteurisation. Glycol fog fluid seems to be inherently very sterile.
@@BigClive Thank you for the response. I hope you're right. I was worried about other mediums being used by people not wanting to buy the proper stuff.
at 16:26, All exit pressure is a product of the delivery pressure from the pump and lots of rapid expansion (of water). heat in the top; the bottom was removed. so, the zig-zag is horizontal. not vertical. stating the obvious, again.
They should make one of these but its Like a Bong or vaporizer die schmokin da Green. Would make a cool Party Gag.
Dark and Stormy exists!
I got a 4 pack of compact tins for about a tenner!
250 ml Black Seal label.
Having the LED's in parallel, allows one bad LED to open and not power off the others!
Hi Clive what is that flashing purple matrix you have above the component racks? Sometimes it’s different colours
Link in the description.
Have ypu done a video about the light in the background at the start of the video? Flipflop circuit or bank of self blinking LEDs? I'd like to make one like that but with a slower blinking rate if possible.
Once you have one of these, all you need is a sink plunger in the other hand and you'll be all set to EX-TERM-IN-ATE Peter Cushing.
Let's see who's old enough to get THAT reference.
Never got into Doctor Who, but I do have the Internet to tell me that's where it's from.
And Bernard Cribbins.
Could this be used to humidfie a reptiles enclosure? Or is it super hot water?
My first thought was to replace those LEDs with Laser diodes... ray gun with built in visibility mist!
Handsome Clive Bear looking good.
