I was watching this video while my wife shopped next to me on her phone, she is an electrical engineer, and when you got to your diagram she started yelling at the screen the correct terms and such n such. It was rather hilarious for me. She said you owe her for the eye cancer haha
There was a young plumber named Lee Who was plumbing his girl by the sea. She said, "Stop your plumbing, There's somebody coming" Said the plumber, still plumbing, "It's me."
I remember a few christmases ago. My dad and I are watching the game and my wife walks in the room with her hands about 6" apart and says "how big is this, like 12" ?" My dad, without missing a beat, says "I guess you taught her how to measure." True story, fuckin' hysterical.
Hand Tool Rescue - I want to taze the birds getting to my squirrel feeder. Or just throw the left-handed nut-f*cker at them! Stunned birds + hungry cats = no more pesky bird droppings on my car! (Oh yeah, and food for the fire 🐜) Handy schmoo with electrocity! 😎
Big Clive is a legend amongst men! I used to deliver stuff that he works with during big live shows (vague enough) shocked me when I saw him in his first viral video with a certain flamethrower doll. Nicest guy on the planet and is out there scienceing with joe public in meetups, deserves every follow he gets
And you know your watching your fair quota of AVE and Big Clive when even your girlfriend starts coming out with AVE quotes, Just the other day she told me the sandwich maker had stopped Chooching and maybe I should go wrangle some more pixies,,,,,,
I've had a couple of these for years, absolutely perfect for lighting firecrackers. Giving one of them so a guy who wants to light some sparklers has become a yearly tradition for me. Can't believe you didn't even try sticking something conductive in the arc
Yeah if you get the old school burn sticks, the metal sparklers. Dangerous as frig when they get hot and fall off on your hands. This wouldn’t do anything on the wood stick sparklers
AvE, please don't take this as mocking That's a stuffer for Clive's xmas stocking He has less reservation Than your self-preservation With results that are usually shocking
Good thing you sharpened that brand new white pencil, only to immediately set it down and pick up an old pencil that had already been sharpened. Lololol.
I love that he takes the time to sharpen a pencil on camera and then tosses it aside for another already sharpened one. So subtly awesome! I'm definitely doing that next week to a co-worker that keeps asking to borrow my pencil.
Nifty little device. When I saw you sharpening the pencil reminded me of an exciting experiment I did when I was young. Found a neon sign transformer and made a Jacobs ladder. Had great fun sticking different things in the arc, that is until I used a pencil. Next think I knew I was at the other side if the room, I was sitting in a wheeled office chair at the time. That is when I leaned graphite is conductive. Have taken high voltage seriously ever since.
Well I had to get on the old gargler with the jazz-hands routine and find out what she's for. Turns out the floppy dingus end is for sticking in jars, what for lighting candles. Who knew?
Or cold use a really cheap cable that just has power but no data transfer. How do you think they would store malware on this kind of device without any ram/rom to speak of?
When I first discovered the voltage doubler circuit I built an 8 stage one on a custom made circuit board & everything. Ran AC into it and one of the caps blew up loudly shooting the foil right into my cheek. LOL!
9:46 It helps to have a system for that. It may well be an (unwritten) "industry standard" thing, but input on the left, and output on the right makes most sense to me, when making (or lifting) schematics. In a similar manner, ground on the bottom and whatever supply voltages, on the top.
I love that inflammable and flammable means the same thing. I don’t think it is legal to mark a product as inflammable anymore due to people thinking it means inflammable.
LOL. 'Why does the white gas for my camp stove say it's inflammable? that's odd... I must have bought the wrong thing. Oh well, I'll just pour it out on my campfire, make sure it's good and out.'
FYI UB: it doesn't need to be powered by an AC source to be a voltage booster. The brain box can simply switch the DC supply and feed that into the diode voltage doubler. That's how DC-DC boost converters work, too.
I'm just drooling over the adjustable wrench with the built in fine tuning appendage...I know it is probably not a new tool, but someone finally gets it.
just to eleborate for those that don't know what AvE was saying, the 2 coils are basically a transformer, but you cant transform dc because it needs an EMF that builds and collapses to induce a voltage on the other winding. so an IGBT is used to simulate the effect of a sine wave, by turning on and off at varying rates, we call this an inverter, taking dc, and faking ac. the reason the voltage goes up, and the current goes down, is because the power must stay the same, and Power = Voltage * Current (apparent power), and the amount of that change is controlled by the ratio of windings, for example 2:1 would be 24 and 12 windings. this one will be a very high ratio, like 1000:1 or more.
watched Louis rossmann fixing his e-bike, they mentioned AVE, then remembered that havent seen aves videos for a while. 😀👍 keep doin stuff, that keeps people inspired fixing their stuff. 👍
The pocket version has sliding electrodes with a wider gap that's perfect for top of the ear shots when there's just no room at the bar at call for last orders. The battery capacity is practically 1/5th of the flexible neck model but that's plenty enough to cause some trouble as it happens.
lmao Avecad, that's the craziest electrical schematic Ive seen since i tried to reverse engineer a circuit! very entertaining content with a good reference to for anyone who wants to know how it really works.. plasma arc igniters are pretty neat toys/tools.
it denotes part 15 compliance, basically it means that if it is interfering with transmissions (knowing or otherwise) you can be told to knock it off and then compelled to comply
In my case, 5 minutes.. I just short-circuited this once (tested it on a metal cap, because of course I did) it stopped working and the battery started to heat up by itself, would not recommend...
That coil has me thinking I could use that for my 1/4 scale Offy that I'm building. It'd go perfect in my magneto housing as I can't actually build a 1/4 scale working magneto. It's compact enough to fit and put out 20,000 volts or so to the spark plugs.
Damn, I should've watched this video 9 hours earlier! I really friggin' LOVE those stickers. Also, awesome Big Clive shout out. He'll doubtlessly blush when he hears your kind words.
I was researching these circuits this week for a capacitive discharge ignition system, weird timing! I think you explained it pretty well, considering!
For years, I've had transformers backwards! I thought a step-up had lots of turns on the primary, few on the secondary. When AvE described it the reverse way, I had to look it up. OK, he has it right. Where did I get the backwards idea? As a software guy, I guess I can just say it's a hardware problem and ignore it.
I have a tack life heat gun, and I use it as a heavy duty mechanic. The thing gets way hotter than any other one I have used and has been going for a year of abusive usage. I am quite happy with that chinesium! Lol
Thanks for reccomending bigclivedotcom what a great channel for explaining the angry pixies. I am definitely a noobie when it comes to electronics. Lover of mechanical power and things I can understand. Keep up the great videos and I certainly second checking out big Clive.
Exact same Sony clock radio I bought 8 years ago. Adjusts automatically for DST, has I think a 9-volt battery to keep time during power failures. Gains a few seconds a month: crystal vibrates a bit too fast?
I've got a very basic Sanyo crapper (no DST adjust) that used to gain about 5 minutes every week or two, I'd have to re-set it all the time because it'd gotten too far ahead (like half an hour or more). Was like that for about 10 years, then suddenly it stopped gaining time - haven't had to adjust it for the last couple of years. Maybe the backup battery is dead, haven't looked at that - I just enjoy not having to guess how far ahead it is when I'm still half asleep and the alarms going off.
the electric arc choocher! I've been contemplating picking up one of these. no surprise that its a lithium ion onto a charge/control circuit, and transformer as the voltage doubler just ain't gonna create an army of angry pixies of that particular size. that being said, that transformer must have some crazy amount of windings on the secondary.
Sharpens pencil, tosses it aside and grabs an already sharpened pencil. I love this channel.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

There was a young plumber named Lee
Who was plumbing his girl by the sea.
She said, "Stop your plumbing,
There's somebody coming"
Said the plumber, still plumbing, "It's me."
Beautiful
Aaaaannnndd demonizied
There was a young man from Boston
Who bought himself an Austin
There was room for his ass
And a gallon of gas
But his balls hung out
And he lost 'em
There was an old man from China,
Who wasn't a very good climber,
He slipped on a rock,
And broke his cock.
And now he's got a vagina!!
You i
I remember a few christmases ago. My dad and I are watching the game and my wife walks in the room with her hands about 6" apart and says "how big is this, like 12" ?"
My dad, without missing a beat, says "I guess you taught her how to measure."
True story, fuckin' hysterical.
That's great, LMAO
I dont like things often, but when i do its stuff like this.
I can finally quickly and discretely taze the squirrels getting to my bird feeder.
Or blow their legs off.
I would pay good money to see tree-rats doing the electric breakdancing!
LOLZ! !:^)
you wish you were able to do that with this.
Hand Tool Rescue - I want to taze the birds getting to my squirrel feeder. Or just throw the left-handed nut-f*cker at them! Stunned birds + hungry cats = no more pesky bird droppings on my car! (Oh yeah, and food for the fire 🐜) Handy schmoo with electrocity! 😎
if i end up with a damn coffee filter advert ......
Nothing safer then a Chinese made, pocket sized taser that can start fires.
George & Sue lol. It's just a Samsung phone without a screen
JonnyRocketfuel i seriously spit out my drink Hahahaha well done “ slow clap” 👏

Just the other day she told me the sandwich maker had stopped Chooching and maybe I should go wrangle some more pixies,,,,,,
"long tail cat in a room full of rocking chairs" is the quote of the day.
I swear to God I learned that phrase from the old x men cartoons and rogue.
Eye cancer? I'm more concerned about visual AIDS.
9"? I would have rounded up to 10". Measure twice. Lie forever.
What’s the conversion to centimeters she said
Looks like 3 inches, smells like a foot
Our measurements go up to 11
I round down. Gives them something to take home and reheat later.
‘It’s in!’ she said.... ‘now walk towards me’.
A vidya in which Big Clive is referred to as a "Big, beautiful boy". It was a special moment.
The only improvement would have been had he included "hairy" in there as well!
I've had a couple of these for years, absolutely perfect for lighting firecrackers.

He was talking about doing mindless things while he was thinking.
....he already did off camera i think
Pencil? That's the emergency phone charger.
10:40 Nothing more refreshing than a warm glass of 100ml of current (juice?)
100ml of currant juice
It's how I measure the flow of angry pixies...what are you guys using?
pmgodfrey Hogshead per hectare, traditionally
You can tell by his hesitation he did that specifically so someone would call him out on it. He threw you a bone and you ate it right up!
I love that he takes the time to sharpen a pencil on camera and then tosses it aside for another already sharpened one. So subtly awesome! I'm definitely doing that next week to a co-worker that keeps asking to borrow my pencil.
As an electrical engineer, I always have a good chuckle at the down-and-dirty schematics. Very utilitarian!
Not only is it flammable but it's inflammable!!
boozum 1 x
Ain’t English odd
boozum 1
It’s a conflagration!
Sharpens pencil to pick up one already sharpened. This is the shit my grandfather would do, god I love this channel.
"My better 3/4" He knows who's running the home! ;)

"I see said the blind man who picked up his hammer and saw" ain't heard that one in friggin ages me dad used to say that all the time
Well I had to get on the old gargler with the jazz-hands routine and find out what she's for. Turns out the floppy dingus end is for sticking in jars, what for lighting candles. Who knew?
There are a LOT of ways to implant malware through your USB port. Don't plug crap into your PC, use a charger.
Or cold use a really cheap cable that just has power but no data transfer. How do you think they would store malware on this kind of device without any ram/rom to speak of?
When I first discovered the voltage doubler circuit I built an 8 stage one on a custom made circuit board & everything. Ran AC into it and one of the caps blew up loudly shooting the foil right into my cheek. LOL!
My 2 favorite channels, AvE and BigClive. You do all the tool and industrial reverse engineering and Clive does all the electronic gadgets.
I gotta come back here and hear the first few seconds every now and then. SCHJAEEEHPP.
9:46 It helps to have a system for that. It may well be an (unwritten) "industry standard" thing, but input on the left, and output on the right makes most sense to me, when making (or lifting) schematics. In a similar manner, ground on the bottom and whatever supply voltages, on the top.
I love this guys humor!

Salbuen
It is just natural selection
Finally a BOLTR of something I own lol. Love this thing. Great for fireworks.
"There's a joke in there somewhere..
Involving your mother, and me..."
Impeccable timing.
I've been watching big Clive for a while. Skilled person, great videos.
Respect for the shout out for big clive.
He tear downs like the best of them.
Thank you for making my morning brighter!
"not only is it flammable, it's also inflammable" hilarious as always. Someone should make you a stand up comedian or something
FYI UB: it doesn't need to be powered by an AC source to be a voltage booster. The brain box can simply switch the DC supply and feed that into the diode voltage doubler. That's how DC-DC boost converters work, too.
Really enjoyed. One of your most fun vijeos!
I liked the sonic screwdriver
I love these veejoes. I have absolutely no idea what you're on about most of the time, but you make me laugh.
I Love these videos. They make My Day everyday.
Big Clivedotcom is awesome!
Especially his beard.
Funnier yet how he'll keep eating a fermented 1000 year old egg but a little hot sauce just shuts him down.
That "dream machine" brings back memories
Big Clive, such a smart friendly bear...
Glad to hear you like Big Clive.....he’s always flaunting danger......👍👍👍
AvE and big Clive 😊 two of my favourite most edifying people on TH-cam.. True legends on knowledge
Both have superseded late night TV
I'm just drooling over the adjustable wrench with the built in fine tuning appendage...I know it is probably not a new tool, but someone finally gets it.
I have a few tack life products and so far ive been moderately happy with them.
Thats one way to put a little extra spark in the matrimony.
just to eleborate for those that don't know what AvE was saying, the 2 coils are basically a transformer, but you cant transform dc because it needs an EMF that builds and collapses to induce a voltage on the other winding.
so an IGBT is used to simulate the effect of a sine wave, by turning on and off at varying rates, we call this an inverter, taking dc, and faking ac.
the reason the voltage goes up, and the current goes down, is because the power must stay the same, and Power = Voltage * Current (apparent power),
and the amount of that change is controlled by the ratio of windings, for example 2:1 would be 24 and 12 windings.
this one will be a very high ratio, like 1000:1 or more.
most people use a high voltage arc? not that I am aware of.
That was the most beautiful schematic I've ever seen... and I'm an electrician.
not gonna lie, my eyeballs always cross when you get to the angry pixies. but I always watch for the limericks.
watched Louis rossmann fixing his e-bike, they mentioned AVE, then remembered that havent seen aves videos for a while. 😀👍 keep doin stuff, that keeps people inspired fixing their stuff. 👍
I’ve had one for a few months works great,nice vid.
"too busy to laugh at my own jokes " and this is why we love you :D
It was Big Clive which sent me over here. I'm so glad that he doodly did
This thing dont hurt as much as I first though it would. Really fun gadget.
One of those would make a very discreet mini-taser for use in crowded supermarkets.
Wow your schematic is amazing. The penmanship only to be compared to Great Scott!!
I have finally ordered one of your stickers,cant wait to see how it looks
The pocket version has sliding electrodes with a wider gap that's perfect for top of the ear shots when there's just no room at the bar at call for last orders. The battery capacity is practically 1/5th of the flexible neck model but that's plenty enough to cause some trouble as it happens.
It's funny you endorsed Big Clive...I started watching your channel based from Big Clive's endorsement of you !! I thoroughly enjoy BOTH channels !!
lmao Avecad, that's the craziest electrical schematic Ive seen since i tried to reverse engineer a circuit! very entertaining content with a good reference to for anyone who wants to know how it really works.. plasma arc igniters are pretty neat toys/tools.
Flammable and inflammible.
Maybe the FCC certification is for use as an electronic jammer? 🤔
it denotes part 15 compliance, basically it means that if it is interfering with transmissions (knowing or otherwise) you can be told to knock it off and then compelled to comply
FCC - Frivolous Chinesium Crappola
Ahhh I love big Clive so much
with almost any kind of lighter, it comes down to longevity in my experience. please tell us how long it takes until she chooches he last.
stereomike111 about as long as the battery’s entire life until it can’t hold enough charge to create arcs
I had one of these things, lasted about three or four months before the electrodes just didn't work anymore
In my case, 5 minutes.. I just short-circuited this once (tested it on a metal cap, because of course I did) it stopped working and the battery started to heat up by itself, would not recommend...
The man is keeping me down!! Stickers where gone when I got in from work, Maybe they will be back for another round!
F@k-ing A...the commentary is next level. Keep up the good work and I'll keep up the stomach cramps...🤣🤣🤣
That coil has me thinking I could use that for my 1/4 scale Offy that I'm building. It'd go perfect in my magneto housing as I can't actually build a 1/4 scale working magneto. It's compact enough to fit and put out 20,000 volts or so to the spark plugs.
Ah, an electronic ignition system. It just fires a wee tad faster than my bike spins over.
sometimes i tune in just to hear a like mind. my best to you and yours.
....I suffer from that medical condition all the time!!! Love your channel my friend.
Hey, nice, a Bradken sticker! The founding of Bradken is a great story!
Damn, I should've watched this video 9 hours earlier! I really friggin' LOVE those stickers.
Also, awesome Big Clive shout out. He'll doubtlessly blush when he hears your kind words.
Chris: the mining engineer who also does stand up comedy.
That 9” joke got me rolling
cool , thanks for the video and lesson,,,
As I watch this video, it says there sure currently 888,888 subscribers. This makes my brain happy!
Totally worth the eye-cancer speaking as an electrical engineer. I forking love you doing pixie stuff man.
It's nice to hear you being nice to other youtubers. ;-)
As always, thank you!
I appreciate Bjg Clive too. Heard of him thru u. Tanks
The pencil gag was fucking brilliant.
I was researching these circuits this week for a capacitive discharge ignition system, weird timing! I think you explained it pretty well, considering!
Clive also have excellent recipes.
For years, I've had transformers backwards! I thought a step-up had lots of turns on the primary, few on the secondary. When AvE described it the reverse way, I had to look it up.

Are you using one of those adjustable arms with spring ballast to hold the camera? I swear I can hear some spring noise coupled into the camera mic.
the electric arc choocher! I've been contemplating picking up one of these.
no surprise that its a lithium ion onto a charge/control circuit, and transformer as the voltage doubler just ain't gonna create an army of angry pixies of that particular size. that being said, that transformer must have some crazy amount of windings on the secondary.
Double likes for your tuition,sir. 👍👍
Love how you sharpen the pencil, then grab a already sharpened one to write with! BumbleFuck rules!
Man, 30 minute old videjo and stickers sold out!
Zzyzx Wolfe get on there now. I just went and bought some
Love this thing. One came with my gaard one backpack. Use it on my skottle burner.
I'm all laughing in 10 seconds already
oooohhhh i like this gadget already!
Oldie but a goodie!
