    Wow a great presentation, I am a EE from the 70’s and got out of electronics in early 82 to fly for a living! The Hall effect that makes sense! Thanks. A DC clamp on meter who would a thunk? 😁🛫thanks

    Thanks Tanner, you have a talent for explaining theory! I enjoy your videos. I am retired after a lifetime in electronics/TV/ radio broadcasting, I like your enthusiasm 😃.

    Great explanation, thank you for being so clear and concise - I can really appreciate when you explain the concepts of an equation, rather than just regurgitating a string of variables in it quickly, it shows you truly understand it and you can convey it to a student rapidly. God bless.

    A home-built hall effect sensor could be an interesting project

      That would be kind of hard, but I am sure MIT has a lab with the parts necessary to make that happen. Good idea!

    RADDD. literally just got the HT206D off amazon and was curious to know how it worked and low and behold you are using nearly the exact same one. Thanks for taking the time to explain this!

    Tanner, The agile mind makes the complex simple (total paraphrase of someone smarter than I, whom I can't even quote properly. Apologies to said dude). Okay, thank you for the info on the DC clamp meter! I had no idea they were even possible. (This is what happens when you only receive Bachelor's level training and not Masters'). I hope you enjoyed your time building multilayer PCBs (I'm guessing you've done that by now). I encourage you to remind your Bosses of your talent as you deserve a company of your own. You've got the drive, education, talent, intellect and ability to keep the complex, simple. That makes money as an Entrepreneur... Think about that for a couple hours. After the pros and cons list has been reviewed, make the plans to make the jump to running your own company. You will kill it! But, make sure you have plenty of savings, lowered your burn rate (how much you spend), and have available credit (use like you'd drink tequila, party up front and pay HARD later). I really feel you have the raw materials to do it 😁

    Thank you for posting this great video, i must say you look exceptionally young, did you start electronics when a 6 month old Baby ? at the beginning of this video i thought it was just a spook show and expected a burglar to jump out from behind the scene, a bit like 'home alone movie' 🙂 Lol. Thanks and please post more.

    Can I use the hall effect magnetic sensor module in measuring voltage and current?

  • @Manuel-kd3zb
    @Manuel-kd3zb 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Why when I measure, for example, the positive side gives me a value and with the negative another value, or does the same positive cable on one side of the clamp and then the other way around give different values? With this exact clampmeter model

    My Kaiweets behave strange or I'm wrong. Need your expertise with a strange situation.I have a DC clampmeter, Halls sensor type, when I measure a DC current shows me different numbers when I change the clamp orientation..let's say I read +10Amps, if I rotate 180degress shows -12|Amps..shouldn't be the same? like an ampmeter ..really doens't care polarity, it's same result..no?..TY !

    Hmm... The clap has open metal ends, could you attach extra wires to it, coil that and use a different size loop 🤔and, could you use that reading to calculate the size of the new loop

    Have you hear ed about Montauk project.Which involved powerful radio waves to build oscillations in the aether of space.All the things are based on tesla's secret work. What about your idea on high voltage s ,with ultra frequencies can build doorways to another time?

    Are you ok working and being at university at the same time?
    You look like you lost weight, get yourself a snack!
    My multimeter yells at me if I try using too much dc current... If I use too much ac current, it just detonates🤣 which explains the new fuses and why one lead is now shorter...
