Well at least I did not end up like this guy! i.imgur.com/ONRzMEj.jpg Im heading to Maker Faire this weekend, Should I make a video/vlog about it? Got a cool idea for the Science Fair but cant make it? Share it below!
You need to put a rotating plate in the bottom of the microwave and cover it in grapes cut in half with a tiny bit of skin left between them, they create plasma and then when they break they propel themselves away from each other actually you should team up with physics girl to answer why they push themselves away from each other when after the plasma burns the center part out.
I don’t think the snack worked because the small microwave stops microwaves coming in add out and the the mini microwave broke so the microwaves where just being deflected
I'm thinking if you place the magnetrons at a distance proportional to microwave wave length, than maybe they amplify each other better. Or they might not! the other option would be to have some reflective surfaces in front of them to randomize the output a bit more as they do in some microwaves. That would steer the waves a bit more especially if the surfaces move. ALSO! to get larger sparks from the foil, don't ball it, but leave strips of foil close to each other and that should look more magnificent! AND... no I'm done [Edit] oh wait! to see the wave pattern in the oven you could leave a cardboard box in it for 10 seconds and look at it with a thermal camera
Where were you when I was building this! That cardboard trick is a good idea. I bet you could lightly mist it with water and see where it evaporates. I'm sure there all sorts of destructive interference happening, and I could have done better but I just need to start making videos instead of worrying about it too much.

Electrical engineer here, you should shield the magnetrons that could be unsafe exposed like that, principally because you have many of those side by side. also, depending on the distance you put them appart, and the phase of the waves, they might not even be more powerfull than a single magnetron, they could even cancel out each other and you'd end up with less power being transmitted.
There's also the inherent flaw in "more magnetrons=more power" I see no evidence he's running 40 amp service to the megawave. Can pretty clearly see the lab power supply registering 24v, 1 amp, but it's also clearly not powering the magnetrons.
I honestly feel like he want fully powering the circuit as is anyways. A regular microwave pulls roughly 12-16 amps at 120V and NA breakers pop at around 20Amps so there’s no way he was running all of them at full power, unless he managed to tap multiple breakers across his house. And then, as you said, you can’t just bolt a magnetron to a surface and hope it works. Regular microwaves have physical wave guides and rotate just to evenly heat. Now you point multiple magnetrons straight into one direction, all with differing brands, power levels, and possibly even slightly different frequencies, it a miracle it worked at all
You won the internet. The only way someone can win more than you is by microwaving a microwave that's microwaving a microwave with a hot pocket in it. That's 3 microwaves deep, bruh. CAn you even?
the radiation that destroyed Chernobyl was ionizing radiation, that's gamma rays, uv, X-rays, etc. While this radiation is non-ionizing, infrared, microwave, and radio wave. ionizing radiation knocks off electrons from your dna which makes them unstable because of their small wavelength. Nonionzing wavelengths are too big so they don't have that ability
Lighters will never explode unless you break the entire containment space for the gas simultaneously. This is something learned as a... wayward child. Small holes especially melted ones, near an ignition source, always give a flame thrower. I think the burning gas melts the edges of the hole and makes them reseal. The classic method requires a small bit of skill to hit the ground right, like knife throwing, but you throw the lighter in such a way as to hit the plastic base against the ground and shatter it all in one go. We always used to joke about throwing it down next to a candle... but never tried it. Maybe you should. Just... insert an appropriate disclaimer here. :P
Isn't a microwave designed to block microwaves from going through, so isn't the smaller microwave blocking the microwaves from the large microwave from heating the hot pocket?
Is it a good idea to microwave this?! Miss that show so much, spent countless hours binge watching it when I was younger. Might have to watch some episodes again now.
The body of the regular Microwave oven protected the contents from radiation, the same way it protects us by stopping it leaking out, and because the radiation from the Mega Microwave oven killed the regular oven before the 2 minutes were up, it was barely cooked at all.
I don’t know much about this type of thing but wouldn’t the Hot Pocket be a little more cooked because the other microwave stopped working. Wouldn’t the microwave stop blocking the radiation after it’s dead. Or maybe it depends on when the microwave stopped working.
My GE microwave from 2005 finally crapped out. At first th-cam.com/users/postUgkxO_Bc204MGjxDl87cOKcdgaRhzSqGmv_g I was unsure because I was looking for something with the exact same features. Found it with this one. Interior space cavity was large, but the outside was smaller than my old one. I love the one-button push for 1-6 minutes, and the 30 second add or 30 second start. and MOST IMPORTANTLY, I love how you can adjust the power level during cooking. The reviews said it could not be done, but this marked all the other boxes. and happy to say, it does. I can hit 1 minute start, and change the power level from 10 to 5, 30 seconds in, without interruption. my favorite feature!
Ofcourse the microwave inside the microwave didn't work. Since each microwave is a Faraday cage just as you said that protects from the microwaves. So the inside of the inner microwave is protected from the outer microwaves waves by it's Faraday cage, hence no improvement. However the parts outside the Faraday cage (such as electronics and plastics) is affected, hence it melted.
You should microwave grapes, Flex Seal, Flex tape, a wrench, a bullet, a light bulb, Gorilla Glue, highlighters, holographic Pokemon cards, memes, and the last thing you should microwave is T-Series
Microwaves are actually not as dangerous as people say, you can run a magnetron in open air without skin protection and be perfectly fine, that’s because it disperses so damn much, that it can’t hit anything with enough precision to heat the body. That being said, if you stick the gun of the magnetron to your body, its gonna get hot, and possibly burn you internally(which is lethal sometimes). So, magnetrons and microwaves aren’t super dangerous unless you make a device that focuses the output, then it’s more dangerous. Still, you need to know a lot of stuff about microwaves before you work on them or repurpose then.
I was going to do this years ago, but decided against it due to the high levels of radiation. At 4:25 you made me nervous. Even though it may have been unplugged, those 1uF / 2kv caps hold a charge for a little while. It takes time for the internal 10M resistor to bleed off the charge. Be careful!
It's because microwaves have built in Faraday cages so you don't get irradiated keeping all the microwaves in, in this case it also worked to keep the other waves out. So as soon as the smaller microwave got fried whatever is in the smaller one isn't getting any microwaves
This is awesome, and I loved it, I would have just changed one thing, I would make a mark 2 or v2 with a magnetron on each side of the cube, so there’d be 6 total. I know it’s overkill, but it would be cool to see how items react with that many microwaves hitting from each side at once

mattpkc34xx, Yes, you were the only one to notice it, because you are the only one that exists. Everyone else, all of use, are simply extensions of your own unconscious mind. This whole universe you perceive is your own being gone mad from loneliness. The truth is, there is no one else but you. You are the self perceiving perceiver. You are the hot pocket. Nah, I'm just messing with you. You're not the real one, just another aspect of its unconscious.
I just learned it's because ice doesnt absorb microwaves as well as water, so you get these hot spot spots in your food and its essentially a positive feedback loop. Microwaving on half power gives some time for the heat to transfer and it cools more evenly!
You should have extended the box to cover the magnetrons. (they would still be divided from the main chamber of coarse so you wouldn't end up with them microwaving themselves in the process). Have you ever wondered why the entire microwave is made of metal and not just the cage area that surrounds your food chamber? That is probably why you were getting leakage issues. ;)
I was wondering if you just attached the magnetrons where they would fit, or did you calculate out the distances based on the wavelengths so that one magnetron wouldn't cause the others to be out of phase with it (causing dead spots), reducing the total power produced. Figuring out waveguide lengths, shapes, and sizes is a black art. Your microwave seemed to work pretty well!
Hey, Kevin! Have you ever microwaved Ivory soap? If you haven't, you should try it. And if you've never seen it before, DON'T ruin the surprise, just do it. It's not dangerous, I swear! It's just good *clean* fun. 😏
Did you match the characteristic impedance of the magnetron output waveguide with open air (about 377 Ohms)? If you did not you are creating reflected waves that will diminish the life of the magnetrons and decrease performance. Most waveguides have a horn on the end that accomplish this. You could reuse the sheetmetal one in each microwave. That would increase your efficiency. I should also mention random microwave emission ports cause random constructive and destructive waves within the cavity. So theoretically there may be spots with no microwave energy. The most efficient way to do this is to place each magnetrons at points on one wave guide where each adds to the amplitude of the other or multiplex several waveguides feeding into one output feehorn in the microwave.
That can be tricky to do if the wave guides are not setup perfectly they can theoretically experience the same destructive interference but yes I imagine his megawave has a lot of cold spots.
Awesome stuff as always! Better than when I microwaved a microwave. It was really hard for me to find microwaves that fit the specifications (a huge over-the-range microwave and a 600 watt microwave from K-Mart). Give it enough time and it'll catch fire (it was tough putting out the fire of the small microwave). Amazingly the glowstick I put in the small microwave remained intact.
Are you saying that really it was the US gov't conducting secret scientific tests on people where they exposed them to intense bursts of microwave radiation in their own homes without their knowledge? .....sounds about right, ya.
Guy: *We're gonna send it off with a Techno Viking Funeral with flames and electricity and smoke. That's how I want to go out!* Lady: *Keep doing stuff like this and you will.*
Some magnetrons have beryllium oxide (beryllia) ceramic insulators! So you should not MESS WITH THEM! One speck of it can lead to berylliosis which is not good!
To suffer injury, you need to break the ceramic and inhale a tiny bit of the dust. Don't do that. There is no reliable way to determine whether the one you are using contains beryllium or not, so you must assume it does.
It probably would've been a good idea to put the Faraday cage around the mega microwave instead of making one that's just barely big enough for one person to fit into.
Your hot pocket may still be cold in the middle. But you just opened a black hole under the neighborhood. And Satan just said," What ever the fack you just did!!? Don't EVER do that again!".

Also they are powered In series from the 240v lines. 2 in series then 2 in parallel. Because the 240 is split phase from the transformer I'm pretty sure the magnetrons are doing double the duty cycle. Instead of going from 120 to 0 there going from 120 to -120. Because of this they were making a lot of heat and I had to use hair drier motors to cool them.

I've always wondered if eating microwaved food is healthy? Is the no radiation transfered into the food?
It doesnt seem as powerful as youd expect. Maybe the microwaves are out of phase and creating interference?
It's because there is no spinning plate for the "food", which would allow all waves to hit the object being microwaved.
It's because microwaves have built in Faraday cages so you don't get irradiated keeping all the microwaves in, in this case it also worked to keep the other waves out. So as soon as the smaller microwave got fried whatever is in the smaller one isn't getting any microwaves

Slaps your mom. This bad girl can fit so much food in it
You think i would add anything interesting down here
Llama god Your mom sure didn't
what about "freezing a freezer"😂

To keep my microwave food from hot outside and cold inside I set the power to half and cook at double the time. Works really well!
I just learned it's because ice doesnt absorb microwaves as well as water, so you get these hot spot spots in your food and its essentially a positive feedback loop. Microwaving on half power gives some time for the heat to transfer and it cools more evenly!
@@TheBackyardScientist awesome! Now I can give a good explanation on how and why i do it! 👍😉
Good things come to those who wait.
@@dannydaw59 lol, precisely!
"by microwaving our microwave we should be able to microwave our food exponentially faster" i love you
Macrowave would've been a better name.
Seth Begley i was calling it that either way
the macroPHA- sorry
*T H E W A V E*
So call it a radiowave?
@@wheaties2912 it still uses microwaves. Macrowave is a pun.
You should have extended the box to cover the magnetrons. (they would still be divided from the main chamber of coarse so you wouldn't end up with them microwaving themselves in the process). Have you ever wondered why the entire microwave is made of metal and not just the cage area that surrounds your food chamber?
That is probably why you were getting leakage issues. ;)
This was the most fun "click-bait" ever, thank you TheBackyardScientist, in the name of science!! :D
I loved the car salesman reference that bad boi can fit so many memes in it
"A car that was also a flamethrower"
guys?
I HAVE AN IDEA
lowkey loki Lol no don’t do it
Too bad, the germans already made a flamethrower plane.
So you are saying we need a car that blasts flames at about 1000 degrees celsius

My joke was meant to be taken inappropriately but I guess I failed this time.
I was wondering if you just attached the magnetrons where they would fit, or did you calculate out the distances based on the wavelengths so that one magnetron wouldn't cause the others to be out of phase with it (causing dead spots), reducing the total power produced. Figuring out waveguide lengths, shapes, and sizes is a black art. Your microwave seemed to work pretty well!
Respect for making a ten minutes long video from a microwave that you built ten weeks.
Hey, Kevin! Have you ever microwaved Ivory soap? If you haven't, you should try it. And if you've never seen it before, DON'T ruin the surprise, just do it. It's not dangerous, I swear! It's just good *clean* fun. 😏
I auctually did it in this video but I did not include it because the video would have been too long if I included everything
@@TheBackyardScientist Ohhh ok. Fair enough. Thanks for the reply!
Did you match the characteristic impedance of the magnetron output waveguide with open air (about 377 Ohms)? If you did not you are creating reflected waves that will diminish the life of the magnetrons and decrease performance. Most waveguides have a horn on the end that accomplish this. You could reuse the sheetmetal one in each microwave. That would increase your efficiency. I should also mention random microwave emission ports cause random constructive and destructive waves within the cavity. So theoretically there may be spots with no microwave energy. The most efficient way to do this is to place each magnetrons at points on one wave guide where each adds to the amplitude of the other or multiplex several waveguides feeding into one output feehorn in the microwave.
That can be tricky to do if the wave guides are not setup perfectly they can theoretically experience the same destructive interference but yes I imagine his megawave has a lot of cold spots.
@@wartech0 Not that tricky since we are talking about wavelengths in inches. You could do it with a ruler and tin snips.
@ IDK. Very carefully?
why such crap? if on eBay there are 100kW CW magnetrons.
Awesome stuff as always! Better than when I microwaved a microwave. It was really hard for me to find microwaves that fit the specifications (a huge over-the-range microwave and a 600 watt microwave from K-Mart). Give it enough time and it'll catch fire (it was tough putting out the fire of the small microwave). Amazingly the glowstick I put in the small microwave remained intact.

"We're going to microwave a microwave microwaving a Hot Pocket" is the single coolest sentence I've heard in 44 years of life.
Some magnetrons have beryllium oxide (beryllia) ceramic insulators! So you should not MESS WITH THEM! One speck of it can lead to berylliosis which is not good!
trolle02 lmao
I was hoping someone would mention that
To suffer injury, you need to break the ceramic and inhale a tiny bit of the dust. Don't do that. There is no reliable way to determine whether the one you are using contains beryllium or not, so you must assume it does.

Don't get me started on their attempts at electrolysis...
It probably would've been a good idea to put the Faraday cage around the mega microwave instead of making one that's just barely big enough for one person to fit into.

Put a normal microwave in it and then put a toaster in that microwave
I think mr beast did that
Kremit
Oh I didn’t see that
Perhaps, but did he get the toast stuck in the toaster and then got a fork stuck in it for the experiment?
Look up "microwaving a microwave microwaving a toaster"
did you look into the spacing / direction / timing ? Since they have the same wavelength, they may cancel out if the phaseshift is right.
I just winged it honestly. My friend is in a masters program, something to do with RF design and he had a good laugh at my design.
Also they are powered In series from the 240v lines. 2 in series then 2 in parallel. Because the 240 is split phase from the transformer I'm pretty sure the magnetrons are doing double the duty cycle. Instead of going from 120 to 0 there going from 120 to -120. Because of this they were making a lot of heat and I had to use hair drier motors to cool them.
Things I didn’t realise I needed to see: microwaved Christmas lights! So pretty!
"Don't try this at home".. proceeds to try it at home. :D
