Hi everyone, what else should I do with LIT? I bought like 12 containers. Also go checkout my Instagram (@therealactionlab) and Twitter (@theactionlabman) for behind the scenes and other fun stuff!
i know this would be so stupid but, PAINT ROOM AND WAIT FOR THE NIGHT...if it works am definitely buying it..and maybe a spot like a square in the wall
Does it work on a solar panel? Try placing one of the cardboard on top of a solar panel and test it with a voltmeter. If it works then an improved version of the paint should work as a battery. Right?
Man this is my favourite Science channel *cause it isn't boring.* I wish this guy to be my teacher. 😭 (It's been like a year now since I joined this family.)

I always like coming back to this channel's videos because even the ones that have sort of mundane or not-exciting titles manage to get me invested. Instead of just covering the question asked in the title, I really like how he explains all the extra stuff around it, like how glow-in-the-dark material actually works rather than just a 3 minute video of "Okay let's charge it. Well it kind of worked but not too well, okay thanks for watching guys."
You should paint the inside of a box with it, shine a light on it and shut it tight. Then check after some time if it;s still shininng after some time.
if his neighbours dont know he is a youtuber, they might say he is crazy: D " he is doing all those crazy things in his house lights flicker.. red, green,blue... talking to himself, laughing etc. that boy is insaane" xD
You should try the so called “thermo-assisted fluorescence “ you heat the fluorescent paint while you shine light on it. This should (I don’t know if it works on LIT) give the exited electrons the energy to jump another little bit higher and then irradiate with a shorter wavelength. This works fine with the atoms (for adsorbing and remitting radiation) so it should work with LIT.
I think this is very cool. I kinda wanna get lit now for my next future project. During hot summer days your less likely to lose the items made with this glow in the dark material
Note; Open the jar charge with flashlight. With a spoon carefully dip and move or scoop some from the middle. What I seen was the depth of the glow is one thin layer from light it doesn’t penetrate. Sooo I dusted my flashlight mirror reflector using a light coat of linseed oil for adhesion. The dusting allows the light to reach the mirror and reflect. It glows really well. What I do with lit is using it sparingly by not mixing into plaint as only the surface dust will glow. Dust while the paint is wet and fresh. Allow it to dry then protect it with clear coat. Or If you mix the dust in the paint use it on the second coat and paint it thin, and or dust that coat before it dries and again clear coat. You will get more done and it glows without wasting…
Sorry but heat is not charging the phosphor. What is happening is that higher temperatures accelerate the phosphor decay rate which makes it appear to be lighting up. If you will notice in this video, when the heater is tuned on, images of then M shaped pattern you drew with the flashlight start to reappear on both the blue and green panels. Take a panel that has been in total darkness for an extended period of time and heat it. There should be no glow, or if any residual glow does appear it will begin fading and will eventually disappear. Old military infrared viewers used this technique by charging a phosphor target and then focusing the IR image on it. The IR image then reveals itself as the phosphor emits visible light from the prior charging.
Am a simple man.. i see the action lab,i click edit: omg thanks for the heart you just made my day!!! edit2: I've never had more than 3 likes in a comment thanks guys
U should make a box with the inside walls being mirrors that way the light cant dissipate, and it will run back to itself or the other panel in it. Then check back in a few days and see how it is
I have several questions: 1) If it can be charged by heat, does that mean it will glow if it happens to be a warm night? (I'm thinking that we could light the inside of buildings during the day by harnessing the heat from the Sun somehow. ...IF it actually can work that way) 2) Is the light emission a cooling process similar to boiling? 3) Does there have to be a temperature gradient for the molecules to want to emit a photon? (I suppose question 3 is what I imagine to be true if the answers to questions 1 and 2 were "no" and "yes," respectively.) 4) You stated that green was the brighter of the two colors. It also appeared that green was the quicker of the two colors to go dark. Was that actually the case, and if it was, is it basically growing darker faster because it gives up its excess energy faster or is there some other mechanism in play here? 5) Could you check to see if that 30,000 Lumen flashlight will still charge it if you shine the light on the back-side of the cardboard instead of point-blank from the front? (That was pretty cool how bright that got, btw. I'd buy myself one of those flashlights, but I just know that I'll get myself in trouble with it somehow, LOL) 6) Could the light from one blue be harnessed to heat something, and then, use that heat to charge the other? Probably not very efficient, but by converting light to heat to light again we could charge a panel using light of any wavelength able to be captured for heat. For example: Vanta-black on one side of a piece of sheet metal, and Lit on the other side... and VIOLA: Solar Powered Lighting!
Second law of thermodynamics alone says no, you can't have something charge forever. (Only 0:15 in the video, so that's my prediction.) Another reason it won't is because a lot of the light waves would scatter and not hit each other. Regardless, the answer is no.
Have you tried to just heat up a completely discharged panel? I think that heat causes an increase in the glow rate in phosphors that are already charged, but it will not be converted direct to light.
When you were charging them with heat, the "M" shape that had previously been charged with light seemed to show up brighter, as though it somehow retained a memory of having light shone on it. Any explanation for this effect?
Let's say to start the M was at level 30 and the background at level 10. Then when heat is applied everything goes up by 10 levels. So the M is now at 40 and the background is at 20. So the M appears even brighter than before, but so does the background
If my recipe for the world's brightest glow in the dark pigment material that charges itself and glows forever catches on, I'll have you to thank for it, the action man!
If you apply the second law of thermodynamics, it is impossible to make an eternal loop, however they both can get to last longer, but it eventually fades away.
It's worth mentioning that the human eye is much more sensitive to green than it is to other colors of light, because of this, digital cameras are also much more sensitive to green light. This might account for why the green looks brighter.
I have a neat idea. What if you had a medium between two different green lit material platforms to raise the frequency of the waves they are omitting? i.e. A relatively thin, transparent blue plastic wrap
Would it be possible to create a fluorescent paint that absorbs lower wavelengths but requiring more of them to glow. I.E. two red photons per green one emitted:
Fidfk Jck Kinetic energy isn’t light. Temperature is the measure of the average of how much kinetic energy in molecules. For it to actually produce light in the visible spectrum, it would have to be at a very high temperature, there are some exceptions, though.
The difference you see in brightnes of green and blue is because human eye is more sensitive for green light. For example when you have green, red and blue laser with the same output power, the green will looks like it's brighter than others.

Two questions, can you run a current through it to charge it up and what does lit stand for? Great video!

That, sir, is an excellent idea! Wow! I don't know if it will work or not, it may not but that doesn't matter, this is actually an awesome idea .
It's not that bright to light up a street
@@rollingrocky3608 It'd be good to paint the lines on roads without lights so drivers can always see them.

I'd like to see this too. It should only be possible to extract energy from entropy gradients so glow from equilibrium heat ought not work.
It takes weeks to fully discharge the lattice.
there is a heat gradient @@derre98
I need that 32000lumen flash light and those glow paints in my life!!! 😍😍😍
Can the sun charge it? If it can, it can replace torches or LED lights!
Yes, but the paint isn't bright enough to replace LEDs or flashlights. Not yet, at least
blue lit paint + room = hyper awesome
What if you put it into 2 concave mirrors that created a nearly seamless sphere? Then it might reflect the energy lost.
Top Secret light loses energy by like 2% or something every time it reflects off of a mirror so still it would die out

This experiment was LIT!
When you were charging them with heat, the "M" shape that had previously been charged with light seemed to show up brighter, as though it somehow retained a memory of having light shone on it. Any explanation for this effect?
It was previously charged, compared to the remaining background...
So when it was being charged with heat, the M had more power than the background...
Let's say to start the M was at level 30 and the background at level 10. Then when heat is applied everything goes up by 10 levels. So the M is now at 40 and the background is at 20. So the M appears even brighter than before, but so does the background

Rapidly heat and cool it by running hot and cold liquids over it. Use it to measure heat transfer capacity of different liquids.
Is it possible to get more glow if you mix the paint with a clear paste (so it has more surface for light to interact)?
You should use clear acrylic base combined with waterproofed pigment.
